What is the difference between Old and New Gmatclub tests?
What sort of difficulty are the Quant and Verbal old tests? Does the difficulty increase with test number?

Sorry, cant give a full reply have to run out. For the old tests, there are percentiles. They do not increase in difficulty with the test number. However, each test has a percentile rating based on the answers by previous GMAT Club members.
The new tests take the weights of each individual question to built out a test and present the score based on the individual question levels.
One "issue" is with scoring. The GMAT Club audience is very good in quant so the percentiles that you get with the old tests are quite low even if you hit quite a few questions right. Don't get discouraged - thats based on a high number of Q50 scorers.
Remnants of the same issue still exist in the new tests but we should be able to get rid of that and make them pretty balanced with the Real GMAT in the next few months (we need people to take the tests; and the more the better).
Hope this helps.

One more thing to add is that the new tests are very and they have had more bugs than we have expected. Unfortunately the system has not been as flawless as we expected and it is a challenge with fixing one thing and breaking the other at the same time....
the old tests perhaps do not have the looks or the bells and whistles but they are solid. New ones still need about 1-2 weeks of development to get to that level.
I hope by July 4th (next free day) we will get them to that point.
Thank you everyone for your patience.
