Hi All,
In the OG bundle, there is this "Online Exclusive" questions in the Wiley q bank - how should I interpret these, are they questions from the latest years? GMAT made these to better guide candidates? Why do they exist, should I place more weight to these?
Much appreciate any insights !

Hi! I think all of your ideas are great ones. It would be awesome to get some new, or hard, or in some other way more special questions. Unfortunately they are there for a different reason and none of the ones you mentioned.
1. Out of the 150+ online questions, 74 are IR questions that are not included in the book (it is really hard to publish an IR question on paper) and that is why they are online only
2. 99 Questions are a combination of PS/DS/CR/SC/RC and all of those were the questions that were removed from the 2021 edition of the book, meaning these are the old questions that were decommissioned.
I guess it is better than nothing since we don't have to pay for those but these should not be driving one's decision for the purchase of the book or use of the online question bank. They are pretty forgettable questions. At the same time, 100 older official questions are always good. There is nothing bad with the fact that they are older. Many of the GMAT prep questions are from 1990's and they still work - 2+2 is still a 4

The legend himself!
Thanks BB for the reply, that makes sense.
After posting my question I went on to do them (there are not that many) and I saw a few repeated questions that I have encountered in the regular Qbank too.
Thanks,
Jonathan
