Hey guys i needed some help with the tags on Gmatclub [#permalink] New post   20 Nov 2019, 00:49
Hey guys i needed some help with the tags on Gmatclub
So i have been practicing Questions on Gmatclub using the Question bank filter. I have been mainly practicing Official Guide questions, but many OG questions seems to also have GMAT Prep tags as seen in the below link. My question is how is it possible that OG questions also appear in GMat prep and should I avoid such question because I wouldn't want it to alter my official mock scores.
Can anyone help me with this as it is a bit difficult to filter out Gmatprep questions cause even without choosing that tag they inevitably end up in the list of questions.

As you can see from the Tags, this question is new to the OG 2019 and OG 2020. This means that the question likely was in the previous version of the GMAT Prep. However, since it is included in the recent Official Guides, it is safe.

Thank you for the reply
I'm aware of the OG Directory link, but when you use the filter for all OG questions from 2015 to 2020 you discover a goldmine of OG questions on Gmatclub.

Also some Questions that have gmatprep tag as well OG 10, 9, basically older OG tags, I should avoid those right.

Such as this one:-

You are on the right track. The OG10 and GMAT Prep are known to have an overlap. If you choose those two tags together in a strict search, you will end up with the overlap list. I recommend staying away from early official guides and by early I mean anything before 2015. That’s the only sure way to make sure you don’t run into one of the GMAT prep software questions.

PS. GMAC Seems to shuffle questions around and move them from official guides to GMAT prep and vice versa. The latest book with advanced questions for example has a number of questions from early official guide additions... different topic. I am getting carried away.
