Very interesting changes... I'm very early (~2 weeks) into my GMAT studying, and here are just some thoughts swirling around in my head:
Thank you!
- I would be applying for MBAs about 3-4 years later and I currently have the MGMAT 6th edition set + 2020 OG books.
- If SC is getting removed -- a section I am weaker in -- would it be advisable to continue reviewing the MGMAT set and to omit the books whose content is being removed? In this case, SC and AWA. Or, is it expected that the question content for remaining sections such as RC will also change significantly?
- Ideally, I would like to continue studying despite all of these changes. Would there by any issues with omitting SC + AWA and waiting to take any official practice CATs until the new Focus version is out for those? It doesn't really make sense to take the current "old" CATs since the test format + rules will be changing drastically.
- I'd also be looking to pick up a 2023 OG once that comes out later this month.
Thank you!

Hi. Welcome to the mad house! 
First of all, you are trying to buy a ticket on a train that you don't know when it is leaving. The new test may be here in April or Sept. It may also be here in April but be ridden with issues - there is risk.
At the same time, It seems no content is changing in terms of what is tested on the CR or RC or Quant based on all the evidence and so you can prep without SC or at least leave the SC portion for the very end. So far no indication is given that you cannot use the materials you have even the 2014 edition of the MGMAT guides - I would expect all of them to be valid because GMAC is not going to voerhaul and completely change their questions/content/etc - there is no reason really.... they may make some very small tweaks such as remove Geometry from quant just like on EA (it is missing from the list).
But the rest is the same material, so minus SC and minus Geometry.

Is there any information regarding total lifetime attempts? Since GRE does not have any limit, should we assume that GMAT FOCUS will go GRE's way?

).
This new test format is so similar to CAT (Common Admissions Tests) in India. Although GMAC will never match the pricing if they compete with CAT (~15$ for attempting the test)
