hi,

I am struggling with the same problem and was wondering how you managed it?
Hey!
1. I bridged my gaps (gathered from an error log/sectional reviews) and improved my quants and verbal skills, and then tried to use those techniques in DI.
2. I had previously watched the GMAT Club x GMAT Ninja DI series, but I also watched the playlist by GMAT Ninja and made notes from the videos (techniques for each question type). It has been helpful so far!
3. I am focusing on improving my process i.e. structuring the data present, and on other skills such as which information to focus on, when to estimate/when to calculate etc.
4. Also trying more practised sets to improve time efficiency and to get used to the time pressure..let's see how things go :) (have postponed my GMAT to a later date)


All the best!

Hi Manasi,

I took DI lightly because no one seemed to be worried about this section and paid a heavy price for the same in the official test.Did you practice it as often as other sections? How are you going about the timing in MSR and TPA?

Thank you for your detailed reply
