At one point, she believed GMAT wasn’t for her. After scoring 595, self-doubt crept in and she questioned her potential. But instead of quitting, she made the right strategic changes. The result? A remarkable comeback to 695. Check out how Saakshi did it.

Tejas studied hard but kept repeating the same mistakes. After 3 attempts at 645, a focused 4-week strategy helped him identify and fix what was holding him back—leading to a 695 with just 12–15 hours of study per week.

#1
n can be 0,4,8,12... and always the sum of \(4^n+n^2+1\) would be odd which is not divisible by 2 ; sufficient
#2
n can be 0,6,12,18... and always the sum of \(4^n+n^2+1\) would be odd which is not divisible by 2 ; sufficient

\(?\,\, = \,\,0\# 1\,\,\,\,\,\,\left( {\# \in \left\{ { + , - , \times , \div } \right\}} \right)\)
\(\left( 1 \right)\,\,2\# 1 = 2\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \left\{ \matrix{\\
\,\,\# = \times \,\,\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,? = 0 \hfill \cr \\
\,\,{\rm{OR}} \hfill \cr \\
\,\,\# = \div \,\,\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,? = 0 \hfill \cr} \right.\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,{\rm{SUFF}}{\rm{.}}\)
\(\left( 2 \right)\,\,\,\,4\# 2 = 2\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \left\{ \matrix{\\
\,\,\# = - \,\,\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,? = - 1 \hfill \cr \\
\,\,{\rm{OR}} \hfill \cr \\
\,\,\# = \div \,\,\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,? = 0 \hfill \cr} \right.\,\,\,\, \Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,{\rm{INSUFF}}{\rm{.}}\)
The correct answer is therefore (A).
We follow the notations and rationale taught in the GMATH method.

Fabio.

Forget conventional ways of solving math questions. For DS problems, the VA (Variable Approach) method is the quickest and easiest way to find the answer without actually solving the problem. Remember that equal numbers of variables and independent equations ensure a solution.
The first step of the VA (Variable Approach) method is to modify the original condition and the question. We then recheck the question.
Since \(4^n\) is a multiple of \(2\), we only need to look at \(n^2+1\).
If \(n\) is an odd number, \(4^n+n^2+1\) is divisible by \(2\).
If \(n\) is an even number, \(4^n+n^2+1\) is not divisible by \(2\).
The question asks if \(n\) is an odd number.
Thus, each of conditions is sufficient.
Therefore, D is the answer.

[GMAT math practice question]
Five data values are \(11, 14, 16, 18\) and \(x\). What is the value of \(x\)?
1) The mode of the \(5\) data values is \(11\)
2) The average (arithmetic mean) of the \(5\) data values is \(14\)
