Summary
The content focuses on common mistakes made by test-takers on the GMAT Data Sufficiency (DS) questions and provides strategies to avoid them.
- Don't overcalculate: Focus on determining if you have sufficient information rather than finding the exact answer.
- Treat each DS statement separately: Analyze statements independently without carrying over information from one to the other.
- Avoid confusing the prompt question with the sufficiency question: A definitive 'no' to the prompt question can still mean you have sufficient information.
- Practice with specific examples to understand the application of these strategies.
- Remember, the goal is to assess sufficiency, not to solve for a specific answer.
