Hi there,
I'm preparing for the GMAT exam, and my target score is 700. I'm using several resources to prepare including Magoosh.
When I compare the difficulties of Magoosh and let's say OG, it seems Magoosh is 2x or 3x difficult than OG.
So, I want to know is it harder than the actual exam, or the level of difficulty is the same.

IMO, comparing individual questions, especially in SC and CR, is biased as OG has some questions way harder than those of any test prep company and has some very easy questions.
In RC, test prep companies, such as Magoosh, sometimes increase the passage size to increase difficulty level. For example, a typical short passage in OG has one paragraph, number of words not exceeding 250; unofficial passages may have 2-3 paragraphs with number of words as many as 300.
Msgoodh has a variety of questions from 500 to 700+.So I wouldn't say magoosh is more difficult than OG.
