OG questions are good only for verbal.for quant, only the last 50 questions each of ds and ps are good.

Hello,
8 months is a long period for preparation, but maybe it's worth it, because you got the desired score.
My name is Tanya and I am the Project manager at GoGMAT company. We are preparing students for the GMAT.
We truly believe that you have tremendous experience in GMAT preparation. That is why we really want to invite you as a consultant in our project.
What do you think about that? Our skype is galibier2012.
Thank you in advance for your reply.

You're right. I still don't know why the GMAT has been so conservative about including high difficulty level questions on the OG so far.

Possibly because the GMAC doesn't want to reveal their best questions to the candidates and also because they want to cater to all types of students

Yes, that's exactly the reason Fred.

What I don't understand is that why is this more in case of quant and less in case of verbal. On verbal, I have seen the questions are across the range of spectrum but on quant they are towards the lower end

OG questions are good only for verbal.for quant, only the last 50 questions each of ds and ps are good.
So what are the other sources to practice Quant questions from ?

PS and DS boosters from Aristotle Prep are some other good sources..They have good questions spread over a wide variety of difficulty range
