I know this has been asked before so I apologize ahead of time for the redundancy, BUT I need to know what math prep guides have the the hardest questions, question types likely to been seen on the actual gmat.

Most of what I have been studying and the practice tests I have been taking seen to have questions a lot easier than the actual test.

Thanks,
David

i have to the OG and the OG quant book. I had been studying them for 3-4 monthes prior to taking the exam. I found the actual exam questions significantly harder then the questions in both of those books.

Any other suggestions or advice?

I think that GMAT Focus is a great investment: https://www.mba.com/mba/store/ProductInfo?SKU=1612829X
This is computer adaptive so, if you're already scoring high, then most of your questions will be challenging. My suggestion is to turn off the timer, and take your time so that you answer more questions correctly and, subsequently, receive the toughest questions.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
