I would like to go through every single one.

1. OG13
2. 2 Practice Tests
3. Additional Question Banks

Is it just these three sources or are there more?

Also, how many questions are in the practice test if I was to keep resetting?

I would like to know the scope of the work I have ahead of me.

If you keep retaking the 2 official GMATPrep practice tests, you will see some (but not many) repeated questions the second time you take each test. With each subsequent test, you'll see more repeated questions.

If you're interest, I wrote an article for BTG on this topic: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/2010/03/ ... iple-times

Cheers,

Get the two review guides as well. Verbal review 2nd edition and Quant review 2nd edition. This and the OG 13 and the GMATPrep software with the add-on Prep Pack do not have much overlap. That is the newest version of each.

Good luck!

For what it's worth -- I'd suggest that you spend some time developing a study plan before you just start jumping into completing hundreds upon hundreds of questions. The GMAT is a test that can really cause you to think about where you want to invest your time and study efforts -- best to invest your most limited resource (time) in the places where you will get the biggest bang for your buck, so to speak.

Here are two links that might help out on that front.
