OG 11 - Is the math difficult enough

I have been studying for 2 months and felt as though I had the quant sections of the OG 11 nailed. On test day I blew it on the quant and only scored in the 50th percentile.

Practice Tests

Where can you find good free practice tests? Can you download some online through certain websites? I am willing to pay as well but just not sure where to find the best practice tests.

Is it just me or was the quant section of the diagnositics test in the OG 11th edition a little on the BRUTAL side. The questions in the diagnostics seemed harder than even the last 100 questions of the word problem section. Any thoughts from anyone?
