well...someone did jump into a conclusion that all the people located in india are non native speakers of English

CR brush up needed...😉

And in the morning the same person was asking about the credibility of a moderator of this esteemed forum...lol

A person living in a glasshouse should not throw stones at others....We all are trying...we all are here to learn...

Let’s not belittle anyone by making snide...

Hello,

While going through CR Qs options, I’ve observed a pattern that doesn’t allow me to interpret/analyze the options correctly. These options include a comparison "no more likely than X" . An example has been cited below. I am facing challenges specifically with this question type, I am able to solve other negative options till some extent.

Eg: https://gmatclub.com/forum/exposure-to-certain-chemicals-commonly-used-in-elementary-schools-as-28474.html

Pls could someone help in understanding these kinda options better? Thank you!

I have felt that I could land on the right answer while trying to make the option false....like dont think whether the answer is right, try to think it is false....You can eventually get the right option

@dns96 To me it sounds like you could benefit from improving comprehension/understanding of the options. the phrase "no more likely" basically means that there is no bias (neither one has a higher chance so both have almost equal chance to occurring) For me personally untimed practiced helped improve comprehension of options especially in questions where options are lengthy and intense

Hello Everyone- I have my exam in 2 week’s time, I just wanted to check during these last 2 weeks, should I try to do new questions for CR or go back to the OG question directory and re- solve those? Since time is limited, I wanted to confirm as to what to prioritize. Would really appreciate any responses.

What would be the purpose of solving the questions? And why only C.R.? What are you thinking?

Usually the last few weeks are dedicated to polishing your timing and staying in shape and making sure that everything is buttoned up and double checking things that you are ready for the big day.

Of course there are many exceptions to this rule and people do whatever they want. Some people take two weeks to cram and get a decent improvement 😂

What do you do in the last two weeks depends on a little bit on how long you have been studying and that what stage you are… But usually you should be done with learning things. That’s my traditionalist opinion.

In a class of 21 students, how many scored above average on the exam?
i) The class average is 78
ii) The class median is 78

Can somebody help explain above DS question?

The answer would be E. 1 and 2 individually are clearly insufficient. If we combine them, we know that the average and median are same i.e.78, and hence there can be 10 students whose individual scores can be greater than or equal to 78. As such, we would not know the exact number of students scoring greater than the class average i.e 78.

Case 1 - Everyone scores 78. No one score more than 78......Case 2 : First child scores 0. Last child score 78*2. Everyone else scores 78. So 1 child scored more than 78....In both cases, average and median was 78, so combining them is also not sufficient.
