Will I get repeated questions?

Hello,

I took my Gmatprep-1 two weeks back and planning to write my gmat in next April/May. Since I don't want to waste any more gmat practice test now, I am planning to write MGMAT and gmatprep tests when I will feel comfortable with each type of questions (may be after 10-12 weeks).

Now if I practice questions from the forum and participate in the discussion, is there a chance that I will get some questions common in those tests and as a result my score will be highly inflated?

So I should practice questions from the forum only when I'm done with the practice tests, right?

Yes, I would only use the forum questions during review of practice tests and not solve questions randomly from the forums.

During review, I would take each question that you encountered, search here and then see the various ways people answered or explained them.

Yea, the official guide especially has some really brief explanations. The forum here can definitely provide a more thorough explanation on questions that are posted.
