When testing numbers for DS, I usually find that I could have gotten the right answer if I tested a bit more. DOes anyone have any tips on testing numbers more intelligently and more thoroughly?

I believe that mayonnai5e had some good tips for testing numbers on DS. Dig around the archives with the search box on the top right, and you should find that post...

Check out mayo's blog in the "I just Beat The GMAT" section. I believe I saw his number picking strategy there.
