having purchased it I can say $199 is very expensive for what u got. The real interest of this Qbank is to have acces to +1000 questions ; no true analyzes which is worth the money.

With $39 (i remember), u have access to Manhattan's bank and as many questions.

In addition, in Kap's Qbank, most of questions are easy and not really representative...

Have you exhausted OG 12? Make sure you are studying basics before jumping into questions and tests.

Also, have you looked at PR 1012? it is $19 for 1,000 questions :)

Just click on this link: PR 1012 - it is a book by Princeton Review. All description is there. Has nothing to do with OG 12 and does not overlap.

SC 1000 are copyright infringing materials that we do not approve or encourage to use.

Agreed.

They're not even representative of the Kaplan CATs. Forgot to mention that in Kaplan thread. I had an identical question for "difficult" CR on Quiz Bank and the first question of verbal in a Kaplan CAT that should be medium.

Not 1,012 GMAT

OG = Official Guide
OG 12 = Official Guide 12th edition

The problems from the 1000SC and CR are mostly retired GMAT questions, so you'll see lots of overlap between the Official Guides and those question banks.

The official guides are in ascending difficulty, with not too many questions on the 700+ side of things.

Cool. There are reports about numerous errors - would be curious about your impression of the book.
