Sorry, not preparing but the O.G. but the official guide is not the best way to prepare per se because it only contains questions and will not give you any strategies or approaches or even much of information about how questions work so try to get something else such as an old Manhattan or Kaplan book if you’re on a tight budget or a new Manhattan book if you’re not on a tight budget to quickly learn different approaches for questions and how to structure your timing and things like that

Hey bb, are the official GMAT resources—like the Official Guide, GMATPrep Classic, paper tests, and the Quant Reviews—enough to prepare for an 85+ score in Quant?

This is a bit of a philosophical question so I’m going to try to give you an answer and I apologize if it’s going to be unsatisfactory 😂

If you’re aiming for a high quantitative score, you’re guaranteed to face a question on the test that you have never solved before in your life. You’ll get a hard question that will stump you because you’ve never ran into that type of pattern or question type. Is a hard and rare questions reserved only for the high scoring candidates so the official guide and other questions kind of help you to prepare for it but it’s really the material that you’re studying and the knowledge which will help you more to solve this unusual question.

What question practice can help you quite a bit with is eradicating careless mistakes, solving questions quickly and efficiently and managing your time. Because it is impossible to prepare for this question you’ve never seen before, having strong fundamentals is more important than crunching thousands of questions. Having also been in a situation where you are stumped and have no clue how to solve something is also helpful because that gives you experience how to dig yourself out of a hole while under stress.

Have taken both, would suggest test center. Reduces risk. Calms your mind. When I gave my online, after my break, the proctor was nowhere to be seen until the very last min left to start the test. I had to show the room around swiftly to start the test before I could lose time. So such unexpected problems may throw you off during online test

Also, one of my frnds encountered a further troublesome problem. Due to a glitch during exam, he had to show around his room once again during his verbal section. Precious minutes lost
