As the name “Data Interpretation” implies, these questions require you to interpret data from given charts, in order to answer questions. Normally these charts are circle graphs, bar graphs, or line graphs in sets of two, and your task will be to pick out the relevant information needed to solve a word problem. The directions ...…
Another tip to keep in mind when doing quantitative comparison questions is to remember if both columns are definite quantities, D is not the answer. Keeping this in mind improves your chance of getting the correct answer from a 1 in 4 chance to a 1 in 3 chance without having to know a single ...…
For quantitative comparison questions, remember to plug in numbers. This is perhaps the most crucial tip for doing well on quantitative comparison question. If you have two quantities with variables in them, the only way to decide which is bigger is to test numbers. Now, when you plug in numbers, make sure they are workable ...…
One crucial tip to keep in mind when attacking problem solving (a.k.a. discrete quantitative) questions is to eliminate untenable answers. Untenable simply means answers that are not reasonable. So if a question asks you about a radius length, make sure you eliminate any answers that are negative. Or if a problem asks you about the ...…
Quantitative Comparisons require you to use your arithmetic, geometry, algebra, and statistical skills to determine which of two quantities is greater, whether they are equal, or whether there is not enough information to determine the relationship. This basically means that you will be given two quantities, and your job is to compare them. The problem ...…
