What's New with GMAT Club

See what we are working on and be the first to know about the new features, and coolest content that we are adding! I will aim to update this thread weekly as it seems we always have some new improvements and features released.

Timer Difficulty! We now have difficulty values in the timer, so if you are attempting a question that has had over 20 sessions/attempts, there will be a difficulty value associated with the question based on all user experience. For example this PS Question is 70th percentile in terms of difficulty compared to ALL OTHER questions on GMAT Club.

Where's the "Business School Life" forum in the "Forum" dropdown menu?

bb · Answer

Thank you. I have added the item to the Nav Menu (we regularly revise navigation and other elements)

We have added a new feature to the School Discussions forum - now you can see on the tile the number of applicants as well as the total number of posts/replies within each school 2013-04-17_1148.png

We have also added a cool feature - "Also Applied to" tab in the School Discussions Forum.
Now, for each school you can find out what the overlap in applicant pool is with other business school programs. Right now, it goes over the data based on the last 2-3 years and in a few days we'll limit it to just the current season so it is fresher.

I hope it will help you to see what overlap exists between schools and also gives an idea where else to apply. E.g. if you are looking at Haas, what other logical choices are there?

See the Haas example here
