Yes, Data Interpretation (DS) is still tested. In fact, about 40% of the questions in the quantitative section are DS questions.

If you're looking for some extra DS resources, we have a free set of videos that cover everything you need to know: https://www.gmatprepnow.com/module/gmat-data-sufficiency

Hi ScoreMBA,

Are you referring to DS questions or chart/graph/table questions?

DS questions make up a considerable portion of the Quant section (you'll see about 15 on Test Day). While the IR section does include a variety of "table" questions to deal with, the Quant section usually includes 1 prompt that will include a graph or table of data.
