[Tests & Quizzes] GMAT Club Reviews
GMAT Club Tests offer hard Quant CAT tests and a smaller number of verbal tests (over 1,100 quant questions and 388 verbal questions). The questions are generally above average difficulty though some easier ones have been introduced as well. You can see the exact distribution of questions here. To learn about the scoring algorithm precision, please see this discussion. Finally, GMAT Club tests require a subscription but 10 days a year, we offer them for free on US public holidays.

If you want to improve your quants score to 90% , try at-least 70% of gmat club questions and tests.
Lot of good and tough questions in single place .
Pros:
Good selections of quant questions
detailed answer explanations
enable you to find new shortcuts
Improve your timings
Cons:
Not adaptive like GMAT
Scoring methodology can be improved
if you tried other tests by different clubs (e-gmat, manhattan), you may see some repetitive questions.
My recommendation is take detailed notes for all the wrong answers , review the answer explanation , find new shortcuts . This feedback loop process will improve your score .
Finally time all the tests , it will help you find new way to solve the complex quant questions.
But overall wonderful resource to improve your GMAT score.

Very good value for money. Quant questions are representative of GMAT difficulty, so you are not taken by surprise on the real exam. There is a variety of questions for each target area, so you get plenty of practice. I especially liked the option to create your own quizzes, where you can pick specific area to practice as well as desired level of difficulty. The integration with forums is also nice - I learned more efficient/different approaches this way, which helped me to be more flexible on the exam.
Overall, this is a great source for practice purposes. For basics and general strategies, check out other materials such as forums, MGMAT, Veritas, Math Revolution...

The quality of questions is very nice.
The quizzes helped me a lot to understand my weaknesses. I appreciated the Quant part of the tests. There are many questions which are extremely useful in order to understand different patterns.
The Quant part provided a satisfactory experience however I have two concerns:
-not all Questions are GMAT Type -They are exceedingly difficult in some cases(at least to solve them within time allotted)
-The explanations provided are not always satisfactory
Regarding the Verbal part, it is less worth in my opinion, since many of the questions in the bank are similar to those in OG.

Best practice for quant exams. Must have for scoring a 50 plus in GMAT quant. It makes you think like a pro. Not only in GMAT, you will start looking problems in different way. The approach itself will be different. You might have had a lengthy solution, but when you review the solution, it will be in two to three lines. Do not miss even a single problem of 700 Level. You can use the 600 level problems as a brush up of your basics. I suggest the tests to everyone. If done with this series, never worry about anything. Just go and give the exam.

GMAT club test are awesome for quants. It really pushes your limits to score in high 40's and even 50's. Quant sets have great mix of difficulty levels. These sets are very challenging and great practice to score high in Quants. I think predicted scores for quant tests have a deviation of around 4-5 in real test, considering that quant sets are of higher difficulty level. The verbal sets are not quite reflective of difficulty level as in real test. Critical reasoning questions are easy and need to be revised to reflect the difficulty level of real Gmat questions but RC's were good practice.

I must say that the level of the questions in both Quant and verbal is excellent .
I have taken coaching for GMAT in July in Bangalore from a well known institute in Bangalore. After doing GMAT club tests , I find that I have wasted my time having attended that coaching.
Had I invested my time here solving questions on GMat Club,I would have been ready for the exam by now.
All that I can add to the review of free club tests is that Explanation for some CR questions could also have been provided.
However, the tests were a real motivation to me.

I have been using the GMAT Club CATs and can vouch for their extreme usability without any inhibitions. I have given the real GMAT and coming to GMAT Club tests from their has made me realize how much similar these exams are to the real tests. There are more than 20 quant CATs with each question worth its price in gold, figuratively ;) I was on a Q 42 and have been able to improve to a Q 49 owing to these CATs. The most important thing that I would like to mention here is that we all know GMAT Math is not difficult it's tricky. The GMAT Club tests have all the tricks and the traps one can imagine. Hhats off to the creators. So, once you have done 20 or more of these tests and have reviewed well, you know the traps like the back of your hand. Which is one thing which I missed in my quant preparation earlier.
All the best.

If you want to practice the toughest quant questions, GMATClub tests is where you come. This is the toughest. Nothing even comes close - not even Manhattan advanced gmat quant!
I was scoring in the range of 48-50 in quant in Veritas, GMAT Prep and Manhattan tests. However, in first timed exam that I took in GMATClub Test, I scored 43. The tough questions are so beautifully designed that it exploits your every little weakness and motivates you to learn new tricks. Learnt a very useful techniques while going through the solutions. Also, the responses from GMATClub community are so helpful. Verbal tests are not too bad. A word of caution, though. Don't rely too much on the solutions. They are not convincing enough and lack the subtlety of real GMAT questions.
Highly recommended though!!

I have been a member for quite a while now and i have tried many questions of GMAT CLUB quant and verbal - not so much as quant. What GC Quant offers is a effective pool of 700 level quant questions that are brilliantly arranged according to 500 , 600 and 700 level. The test series is very effective as the level of quant is hard - very hard but the logic you need to apply to solve these questions is within the GMAT pattern . More than 90% of the questions are new and opens your mind to how pre-think in the real thing. I have tried 4-5 test until now for GC and in all i was amazed by the questions and their explanations . The trick involved here to solve the questions will help you open your mind on how to actually deal with hard questions in GMAT. So my suggestion to all my peers is go for GC test atleast surely for the QUANT part . These will really really help you for the real deal .
Verbal - I felt that the questions were good and mostly resembled GP .
In short go for it - it forms a great tool for practice .

From the interface to the type of questions to the scoring algorithm, I believe GMAT Club Test are very close to actual GMAT test. In fact they come very close to the GMAT Prep tests, and the best part is here you get succinct solution for each question - a feature not available in GMAT Prep tests.
Overall a must for those who are aiming for 49 or more in Quant.
Only issue that I could mention is that GMAT Club Quant tests have limited no. of Geometry questions whereas I was faced with some never-seen-before challenging geometry questions on my actual test.
Verbal Tests are also good but could be more aligned to the actual GMAT questions esp. Critical Reasoning questions.
