Hi all,

Can anyone kindly suggest some ways to tackle data sufficiencies?

i've read through Kaplan Math review and understand the strategies it recommends, but I don't seem to be improving.

other than practicing as many questions as i can, are there any other practices that those of you with experience can tell me?

thank you,

much appreciated

Practice, practice and practice

After you have done enough practice, u will discover that u start finding patterns/some sort of familiarity in the problems that are asked on GMAT.

Also revise concepts of Sets, number properties, permutations and combination (they are asked the most)

Apply your strategy and find out, what are you doing wrong
is it a careless mistake, or you are missing a concept

Remember, nothing can beat hard work

So start practicing.....Good book to start with would be OGs.......dont go for any guide....coz companies deliberately put in hard questions

P.S Also read related posts on DS on BTG

U know I was also once miserable at DS........I have improved a lot now....

thank you for your response... i didn't think anyone was going to reply.

are there any books you would recommend other than the OG? i'm saving that one for last after i feel somewhat grounded in DS..

and thanks again! :)

After OG's you may try your hand at any guide

Also you may use the forum to find new/tricky questions

For any book/og/guide that you use,
focus on
"oh i didnt knew that"....or "oh i missed this thing....next time ill keep that in mind" type stuff

By that i mean, it doesn't make sense doing a 1000 questions, if you are not keeping record of improvement and revision

A good point of start would be

maintaining a error grid (available on BTG)

For every question you do, mark slow, unsure, correct , wrong, careless error, concept error

so that after 50 questions or so, you may return back and revise accordingly

P.S If you like my post so helpful, you may press the Thanks button on the upper right hand. Ill feel happy :)
