Older editions of OG

[wind]

Is there a difference in practice questions between OG 13th , 12th , and 11th editions ?? Is it recommended to try questions of the older versions ??

Some sites and forums share very old GMAT paper exams dating from the 1990s !!!! Are these still valid for verbal ,Quant , and AWA ???

Thanks

Please remember to read the forum guidelines before posting. Please don't "bump" your own post. We respond to all posts in order, oldest first, and the date of your post is based on the date of the last post in the thread, not the first. If you bump your own post, you will wait longer for a response.

Please also note that the forums are a free service, open to the public. Because of the volume of traffic we receive, it is not unusual to wait a week from the date of the last post (sometimes longer, as is the case this time of year) for a response. If you see that older posts in the same folder have not yet been answered, then you know that we haven't missed you - we just haven't gotten to your question yet.

For a question like yours, you could also contact our office directly (800.576.GMAT or studentservices@manhattangmat.com); any member of our student services team can answer these kinds of questions.

There is a significant amount of overlap between the different OG editions - OG12 and OG13 share approximately 75% of their questions.

The old paper tests are so old that, no, I would no longer use them myself or recommend that others use them. (The last time the test was given on paper was in 1997...)

The best path is to start with OG13. If you need more questions, then buy the question pack associated with GMATPrep - that contains about 400 more questions. You shouldn't need more than that - if you do, it's because you haven't really been studying what you had in the first place. So make sure you're not just plowing through thousands of questions without really learning from each and every question!
