GMAT vs GRE Diagnostic Test - Which Test is Better for You?

Which Test to Take?
Do you want to quickly learn about the pros and cons of both tests?
Do you want to see both tests side by side and the question types?
Do you know if you would naturally perform better on the GMAT or the GRE?

If YES, this Diagnostic Test is for you!

It only takes 75 minutes to take about 40 questions and at the end, you would have gotten a taste for all question types and you would get a score that tells you which test to take. You don't need to waste 2 practice tests or spend 6 hours taking them. Big credit for this idea goes to souvik101990 - thank you!

Here is what you get with this Diagnostic Test:

Introduction to GMAT & GRE
Test details – How many sections and questions
Section 1 Quant (35 mins)
Section 2 Verbal (40 mins)
Scoring
Analysis & Report (Timing and difficulty)
Average GMAT/GRE scores for the Top MBA Programs

Based on the questions you pick correct and the resulting score, you will have a reliable estimation IF the GMAT or the GRE is the most suitable test for you. I.e., the way to go.

Below there is a downloadable version of the test. Let us know how you like it.
Do not forget to make a copy of the spreadsheet and input the answers.

About the Diagnostic Test:

The goal of the test is to help you figure out the difference between the GRE and GMAT and to help you make this decision with more decisive data. Traditionally, experts say that GMAT is more quant-heavy, and GRE is more vocab and verbal heavy. This is reflected in the demographics who take each of the tests. 70% of GMAT Test takers are non-native speakers and 70% of GRE test-takers are native speakers. However, this test will give you a sense of what you are up against in both tests. Make sure to time yourself!
The questions are from GMAT Club Tests and GRE Prep Club Tests. These are not from GMAT Prep or Powerprep PLUS, so you will not ruin a perfectly fine prep product or a diagnostic test.
This test is not adaptive (obviously) since it is on PDF but figured I would mention it anyway
I picked average/medium question difficulty so the GRE and GMAT experiences are consistent. Let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback on how to improve the test.
