[Tests] GMAT Club Reviews

Hello,

I have been taking the GMAT Club test since last couple of month. Though I'm on the verge of completion of the test series, I believe that it's been a good learning experience. I have gained the confidence in approaching the problems, especially verbal. Quants tests are par excellence. The collection of question in quants and their simple explanations are very useful. The background of test page, features make you feel like real GMAT exam. I expect to complete remaining test within couple of week. However, GMAT club should think to increase the number of verbal tests. Though I am to complete the test series, I have a long way to go. Hopefully , I would be able to achieve my target score. I recommend GMAT CLUB TESTS for any serius aspirant.

Thanks
Ravi

Hi,
I purchased the GMAT Club Tests and started to use them. I would share my views.
1. Quants:
Pros: The questions are quite good and challenging, especially they check your number theory ability in depth. What makes these questions interesting is the variety of small concepts integrated in one question. Also in the tests the variety of questions from all topics could easily be found. Although some people have mentioned that GMAT Quant is tougher than real GMAT's. The answer is yes, little bit, but again that depends on various factors. Overall the tests are good.

Cons: How they score you might some times not reflect your actual performance. I mean I have solved more or less the same types of questions in two different tests and end up getting two very different scores.

Verbal:
To be honest, nothing in the market can match the GMAT Prep verbal standards. So no point in discussing.

Overall good for Quants.

The tests from GMAT clubs consists of many varieties of question which tests your basic and advanced concepts that is more than enough for the real gmat. The Quant part is very strong and covers a good amount of questions for algebra and permuatations and combinations. However i felt that the verbal part could have been made more strong by including relevant questions to mimic the real gmat. The tests should also include the AWA writing and the IR which will help the test takers improve their overall performance on GMAT. Nevertheless the volume of materials available is sufficient to shoot you across the 650 barrier easily

I have the privilege to try all 6-7 full Quant +Verbal Tests in GmatClub Test. Few notes are:

1. General:

- You don't have the AWA & IR section to have full experience like GMAC or other tests.
- Questions type are mixed up between 500-700 even if you hit 700+ level, which I felt quite similar to the real test
- There are still few minor glitches with uncompleted question, not highlighted words (even in the question stem said so), in consistent in answers (most without letter but some with A, B, C, D...)
- Plus point for explanation of each question and with forum link where we can find more detail and understanding of questions.
- Good statistics on each question: sometimes I felt it's cool to know how many percent of people make the same choice as me.

2. Quant

- Pros: excellent questions pool, many types of question, great trick and trap, some really got me surprise. Very detail explanation and easier to follow (with forum as well)

- Cons: Not any particular, overall I'm quite satisfied with the Quant session
(P/s: in the last few try, my Quant in Gmat club around 50-51 but in the real test I scored only Q49 :( )

2- Verbal

- Pros: good mix of question, 6 tests for you to try, I think it's a substantial amount for practice; some familiar questions were put under different perspectives which gives me good understanding of the whole point.

- Cons: some questions are debatable (even in the forum); my last 2 verbal tests were all with CR & SC - not a single passage on RC at all. I think the logic behind may have some issue here.

Hope that'll help.

I got subscription of GMAT Club Tests along with my egmat membership twice but could not attempt GmatClub tests much due to lack of time . This time I have started attempting them after buying a short subscription and plan to extend it 1 month more till my GMAT date . After attempting a few tests I have found them to be top notch I have started my Quant prep from mock score of 32-35 and have increased till 46 and hope to take it further till 49-50 , My overall GMAT score has improved from 540 to 640. GMAT today is hard work and you have to devote hours to improve first by building on your concepts and consolidating your concepts by practicing with GMATClub tests and requires patience. I hope to take it to 700 this time , Best of Luck

i have tried GmatClub test and scoring is very similar to actual GMAT .Although sometimes you find questions are quite difficult but this will prepare you for actual GMAT because you know some questions will be difficult in actual GMAT.Questions are very selective and every question has a new concept and has a full explanation for better understandings of concepts. Analysis of these questions with all reporting is very helpful .I would say this is the best tool I ever had for analysis of your mistakes , with Type,Time and Difficulty level provided this helps you to focus on your weak areas. This is really fantastic and must for GMAT takers.

I am a re-taker of the GMAT exam. I have been attempting GMAT club questions and tests.The Maths test had a mix of tough and easy questions and also a lot of tricky questions which ensures the perfect balance unlike a few of the other test series which i took which either had very difficult questions or very easy questions. Although i feel they are slightly tougher when compared to the actual GMAT but its better to practice here to understand concepts and boost confidence levels. The collection of questions and explanation presented is really good. If a few more stats like the weak and the strong areas can be shown, it will really help individuals as they can concentrate on their weak points and work on them.

The tests at GMAT Club are very challenging. Both the sections- Verbal and Quant have good quality questions. Though the explanations of certain questions is not that great but overall experience of taking the test is good. The test software very closely mimics the actual GMAT exam software. The analysis of the tests gives you good clarity of your performance. The depth to which you can analyse your performance makes GMAT Club tests one of the most insight-giving tests available online. The ability to customise the quiz according to you is one of the best features of GMAT Club tests.

Hello GC

My Take on Gmat Club tests for Quant is stated below:

PRO`s:

1. GMAT like interface - The feel is same as what we see in GMAT Prep
2. Question Quality and Boundary - The questions are a bit tougher but worth it to learn. Falls within the scope of the gmat syllabus

CONS:
1. Algorithm - 3/4 of the questions were of 700 level for me - doubt whether this happens in actual GMAT.

GMAT PREP VS GMAT CLUB TESTS :
1. GMAT PREP scores for me - Q48 - Q50
2. GMAT CLUB scores for me - Q46-Q48

Finally I would like to say one thing. If a person scoring in Q40+ attends all GC test for quant, I am 95% confident that his score wont`t drop below Q48 in actuals.

Good luck and keep going Gmat Club.

Thanks
Balaji

These tests are perfect tool to test your score. Tests contain mix types of questions from all the areas. Question pool contains lot of question for us to practice. The emphasis is on the quality of questions and not on the quantity. One can check his/her performance in detail, weak areas are highlighted and one can choose the questions they have got wrong in the test and create their own quiz of those questions. This helps in focusing on weak areas. You can bookmark the questions and have a separate set of all the bookmarked questions.
Explanations include different perspectives and I guess that is the most valuable thing for the preparation tests.
Verbal Section need little bit refining as questions , while 700+ type are good, need to be varied as compared to the actual GMAT.
