Need help on DS and CR

by rupa_m » Fri Jul 03, 2009 10:11 pm
Hi,

I find that most of my incorrect answers are either DS or CR. I am still unable to find why I get stuck with these two. Can anyone please help me out with a general strategy to attack them?
Or which material would give me a very clear distinction between the correct and the incorrect answers in these two sections.

PLease help before I loose confidence. :idea:

Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Rupam

For CR, try the PowerScore CR Bible. I used it like one week before my test and thought it was great, with high-quality explanations and tips. The only downside is that it only has about 50 questions.

From what I've noticed, people get DS questions wrong because they tend to "mix" the info from the two questions without it being necessary. What I mean is that you should start by analyzing the first statement without even looking at the second one and simply forget about the first statement when solving the other one. If you take them both together even without realizing, then you've set yourself up for a wrong answer.

Thanks Danaj. I will try to keep the point in mind while doing DS. This could be one of the possible reasons.
