OG 11 Difficulty Breakdow

[dubc1982]

I'm trying to figure out where the medium questions end and the more difficult ones begin in each section of the OG 11. If someone knows or can point me to a previous post, it would be appreciated.

I started the PS and DS sections after the half-way point. Most of the questions were not too bad until the very end. I know they increase in difficulty, but if I'm able to handle most of the questions at the end, but only some in the last 20 or so questions of a section, am I likely to be at a medium-difficult level? I'm trying to gague where I should focus my studies, mainly difficulty level.

In general there are three difficulty levels so just divide the number of questions by 3 to determine the ranges. I do not believe there is any definitive document that lays out the difficulty of each question in the OG11. The last 50 questions of each section is usually considered by our members as the "difficult" ones.

While someone might find this a useful way to classify problems in the OG, this is not at all how the real GMAT works. There are not three difficulty levels on the GMAT; the calibration of real GMAT questions is vastly more sophisticated.

Thanks for your help. I'm finding some of the questions at the ends of the sections to be not too bad, so I must be in good shape. Thanks again.
