Are the questions in GMAT of higher standard than OG?
the OG contains real GMAT questions -- so technically, no. they are not of a higher standard.
BUT -- the OG contains the range of questions, all the way from easiest to hardest. what this means is that on the GMAT, if you do well, the Computer Adaptive software will keep giving you harder and harder questions, so you're only going to see the harder questions. that means that your hit rate will be lower.
it took me a while to realize this, but the OG is organized from easiest to hardest questions. so unless you're scoring really low, it's not worth spending much time working on the first third of the sample questions, since those are the EASIEST gmat questions. hopefully, you're shooting for a higher score, and will not even come across easy questions in your test....
making sense?
and i'm in the same boat! 8 days til the test!
