Real Hard Questions

Question

Hi there,

I got the Kaplan, Manhattan and Official Gmat Books. In several reviews I read that there are no real extremely hard questions in there. So I am curious to know where I can find those "750+" questions? Any suggestions? Or is it possible to get an lets say 780 score with the Manhattan given you are really smart? Although there are just 25 Practice Questions online per book...

Cheers

Hi madmax1000,

Since you seem focused on dealing with the "hardest" questions that the GMAT could throw at you, I'm curious about how you're performing on everything else.

1) How long have you been studying?
2) What resources have you used so far during your studies?
3) How have you been scoring on your practice CATs (including the Quant and Verbal Scaled Scores)?
4) When is your Official GMAT?

You can go to the Practice Pill Platform www.gmatpill.com/gmat-practice-test/ and look for questions that have a low percentage of students getting them correct.

Typically, questions that show only 50% or less of students getting them correct would be a difficult level question. So what you would be looking for is a questions that has about 30% of students getting it correct -- that would be a very difficult question.

I wouldn't worry about what reviewers say. Worry about what you can actually do when you get in there. If you are really laughing off the hardest problems in the OG, then get our Advanced GMAT Quant book. The problems in there are very hard! However, only do this if you are already crushing the quant section (at least 70th percentile). If not, you are much better off focusing on improving your accuracy on mid-level problems. Even if you hit 750+, you're going to miss some 700-800 level questions, and that's fine. What's  not  fine is missing the lower-level problems. Those will drag your score down!
