I don't know if its just me but I think the Diagnostic Test for PS for OG 12 is BRUTAL. Do you guys feel the same ? I have done lots of questions within OG and MGMAT but found the Diagnostics part of OG 12 to be very tough. Now, for those of you who have taken GMAT, do you think these are the level of questions you encounter on regular basis ?

The real GMAT is representative of OG12 diagnostic but considerably difficult. All the best.

I was just thinking this same thing the other day! :lol: The DS wasn't too bad, but the PS was exceedingly difficult, especially if you try to budget your time accordingly.

LOL! Glad it's not just me. I was feeling pretty good about my prep until I hit the OG 12th Ed. PS. However, that brick wall simply motivated me to dig deeper into quant!
