What are Kudos? Kudos are a reflection of quality of contributions at GMATClub as perceived by GMATClub members. Kudos can be awarded by anyone to anyone and are used to show appreciation, gratitude, or indication of value. Kudos are awarded to both a post and a poster. (You must be logged in to see/give kudos) What can I use Kudos for? You can use Kudos to find the best posts on GMAT Club - we publish lists of the posts with most Kudos here: Top Forum Posts . You can also Sort by Kudos in each forum and find the highest ranked discussions or even highest ranked posts within each thread (they are highlighted by green and yellow colors) You can also give Kudos to others - when you click a +1 button to award Kudos, the receiver gets a notification about your award. It works much better than posting a short line saying "Thanks" You can use Kudos to get access to the GMAT Club tests . If you have 25 kudos, you can get full access to the gmat club tests for 3 months. Once you hit this milestone milestones, please visit this page: https://gmatclub.com/tests-beta/redeem-kudos.html You can use Kudos to get a free copy of the GMAT ToolKit iPhone/iPad app Why Give Kudos? We identify the Top 10 members every month based on Kudos and publish the listing here . Interpreting Kudos Near each post, you will see the following information: Kudos.png How to get more Kudos? You can add schools and fill out your GMAT Club profile and that will net you 5 Kudos right away. You can be helpful in the forums and respond to people's questions (any forum works but Math Forum and Verbal Forum seem to get the most) You can create really helpful/cool/unique posts that will benefit others e.g.: Guide to AWA - 1500+ Kudos GMAT Study Plan - 900+ Kudos From 550 to 750 Debrief - 650+ Kudos PS/DS Question Collection - 550+ Kudos And other posts - see here How to check who and for what posts gave you Kudos? There are 2 ways to see this information: 1) Click on the Kudos tab in My Profile area 2) Go to this URL: https://gmatclub.com/static/kudos-details/ and type in your username 2015-03-16_2134.png - Kudos are collected when somebody clicks +1 button. If you benefit from somebody's post, do click +1, which will increase that score, both for the user and for the post. - Only positive Kudos can be given. - You can give only one Kudos point to a single post. After you give that point, there is no way to withdraw it or award another one. The +1 button will be removed from the posts you have awarded Kudos. - Kudos given are usually displayed with a delay of approximately 10 minutes due to caching. - Kudos inflation and cheating is punished by banning - One user can only give 5 Kudos to another user - You get free 5 Kudos by filling out your school/applicant profile and information - We have started giving Kudos for sharing posts on FB and Twitter If you have suggestions or comments about the Kudos system, please do not hesitate to PM me. Thank you.

What are Kudos? Kudos are a reflection of quality of contributions at GMATClub as perceived by GMATClub members.
Kudos can be awarded by anyone to anyone and are used to show appreciation, gratitude, or indication of value.

What can I use Kudos for?
You can use Kudos to get access to the GMAT Club tests. If you have 100 posts and 25 kudos, you can get full access to the gmat club tests (all 30 of them) or if you have 50 kudos, you can get access to the tests as well. Once you hit one of these milestones, please PM me. Your other option to get access is 200 posts and 90 days of members. There is no membership requirements with Kudos thresholds.

! This is a completely wrong thread for your question.

You can change it here: ucp.php?i=prefs&mode=post

Check "Notify me about replies" to OFF
However, for the existing posts, you will need to visit each thread and uncheck a box there (not sure why it is this way but that's how the Forum software is designed).

Is there a way to disable e-mail notifications on kudos? Looking everywhere for this.

why not create different labels in your email box and your email service provider would move all your kudos emails from Gmatclub to particular folder. This way if you want to check the kudos email you can see easily or you can delete all the emails in the same folder in one GO.

Thank you. This is an example of a good scenario where you could just give the poster Kudos without replying - thank you though

Hi bb/whiplash/GMATLA,

I wanted to know if I redeem my kudos , will I have access to my old GMAT club tests or I will not. I ask this cause I really like the old quant tests and not sure how the new ones are prepared.

Thanks

Thank you for asking.

We have changed the requirement slightly and lowered the threshold: you only need 25 Kudos to get access for 3 months. No post requirement.

You can see your Kudos balance/history here:
https://gmatclub.com/static/kudos-details/cleetus/

You can also go ahead and redeem your hard-earned Kudos here:
https://gmatclub.com/tests/ or directly here: https://gmatclub.com/tests/redeem-kudos.html

Best Regards,

The extra exclamation marks and full stops will not help or make any of us work faster.

Judging by bb's response on this thread, you should get access.

good luck with your prep.
