Hi all,

Contrary to what all engineering graduates say, my story is a bit different.
my accuracy perecentage while solving DS questions from OG is hovering around 55-60%, indicating a big gap to be filled up.

any suggestions?? can someone share his/her accuracy perecentage in DS for OG questions?

Thanks,
Sandeep

Thanks,
Sandeep

These posts explain how to tackle quant problems.
Also while solving DS questions, don't try to find the exact answer. (Just make sure that answer you will get is unique)
Also while considering option b), don't by default assume option a)
Make sure you consider only and only option b)

Perhaps it's the case that you are unaware of some important DS strategies.
Here's a set of free videos on the subject: https://www.beatthegmat.com/mba/gmat-dat ... ncy-videos

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
