by nasheen » Fri Dec 21, 2012 8:39 am
Hi Everyone,

I have finished MGMAT 4th edition guide concept book,
I would like to know how to effectively review DS and PS question?
What to look for while review? How to check traps answer choice?
There are many ways to solve question and lot of suggestions too
but i am not able to figure out whether i am reviewing properly?

Help needed.

Regards,
Nasheen.

The one that worked for me was to review each question (correct or not). If my answer is correct, I can check if my approach is efficient or not (the answers given in books may not necessarily be efficient). If my answer is wrong, I'll know how to get to the write answer.

Good questions -- let me try to give you some guidance that may help answer your question. Take a look at Stacey's two-posts about how to do PS and DS -- https://www.manhattangmat.com/articles/a ... roblem.cfm and https://www.manhattangmat.com/articles/a ... roblem.cfm. Start with those two, apply the learnings and tips, and then get back to me with additional questions/concerns. Good luck!
