Hey Ajitesh,
No, I haven't taken the actual GMAT yet. Planning to take it in a month.

Just took the GMAT Focus Official Mock Test and here’s a quick review for anyone preparing —
The test feels super close to the real thing in terms of format and difficulty.
Hi adarshgmat25,

Did you take the actual GMAT before you took your first official practice test?

Got it. You've started testing at the right time (I recommend min 1-1.5 months).

All the best!

Just curious - if you have not taken the actual GMAT, how do you know that the official mock "feels super close to the real thing in terms of format and difficulty"? ;)

The adaptive nature really kicks in, so if you’re doing well, expect tougher questions. The new Data Insights section is quite challenging and definitely needs solid prep. Timing feels tight, so practice managing your pace.
Overall, it’s the best way to gauge where you actually stand.
Highly recommend doing it under real exam conditions.
I agree that official practice exams are great, but I'm also wondering, if you haven't taken the actual GMAT yet, why do you think those practice exams are so close to the real thing?

Can't I see? Sure I can see there are so many AI-generated fake posts, and so many ghost accounts ready to jump in to promote one of the GMAT-prep providers, or first-time poster writing informercial disguised as experience sharing on the first day of registration and then never coming back to GMAT Club. e-GMAT is definitely not the most egregious, from my observation.

As to an e-GMAT account in the making - sorry I did not see that. I don't have a habit of checking people's posting history before replying to them.

You are welcome to call them all out one by one. I'll wholeheartedly applaud you.

Agreed, DI does feel tough under the time pressure. One thing that might help is to go through different common topics - correlation, % change, etc. to be better prepared.
