What's the OE for part 1? Can barely understand what's written
­The heading of the graph indicated that the dataset is representing "Children whose parents responded to certain criteria".

So, the first blank has to be about the Children. 

Hence, among children whose parents responded to certain criteria, the least satisfaction was for cultural activities­

­If the parent has 5 children, his/her opinion will be counted 5 times, as each child has a separate identity.

My god. I guess GMAC guys are just going to bump up the difficult by making it as confusing as possible.
Is Q1 basically asking which aspect is this graph about? Aspect of life for children or for their parents?­

When we have been given "respondents with children" as an option in the dropdown then why is that not right? It is the adult members who have given the response. chetan2u KarishmaB GMATinsight please help

­Hi kop18

The option 'Respondents with children' wouldn't form the correct sentence here: Read the two options below:

Your suggestion: Among Respondents with children, the aspect for which these respondents indicated the least overall satisfaction was cultural activities.

Correct Answer: Among children of survey respondents, the aspect for which their parents/guardians indicated the least overall satisfaction was cultural activities.

Wrong Answer:
"Among Respondents with children, the aspect for which these respondents indicated least overall satisfaction was cultural activities."

• Issue: This statement implies that the respondents themselves are expressing dissatisfaction with cultural activities.

• Problem: The focus is on the respondents (parents/guardians) rather than their children.

Correct Answer:
"Among children of survey respondents, the aspect for which their parents/guardians indicated least overall satisfaction was cultural activities."

• Correction: This statement correctly indicates that the dissatisfaction is about the cultural activities experienced by the children, as reported by their parents/guardians.

• Focus: The emphasis is on the children’s experiences and the parents/guardians' satisfaction with those experiences.

Summary:
The key difference is who is expressing dissatisfaction and about what. The wrong answer incorrectly focuses on the respondents' own experiences, while the correct answer accurately reflects the parents/guardians' satisfaction with their children's experiences.

Does that help clarify things?

­Why this is rated 800 ? It is sub 500 question

I wouldn’t say sub 500 based on the percentage of people who got the wrong answer but it is crazy to compare these 800 rated questions after I just finished studying quant. This seems closer to an average 600-650 rated DI question on GMATclub but this level of difficulty would be 500-550 on quant.

­hi RonPurewal would you make some comments about this sentence, like old times?

i think this sentence is illogically constructed.
the adverbial modifier "among children" is modifying the main sentence "the aspect was ...," leaving us an absurd scenario that the aspect was among children.
the correct way to reconstruct this sentence could be:
  • among various aspects, respondents rated cultural activities with the least overall satisfaction.


aside from grammatical error, the meaning conveyed is inconsistent with the prompt, which states that "adult members of Canada's First Nations groups were asked to rate their feelings."
it is parents/guardians representing their children completed this the survey, not children whose ideas might be correctly expressed or incorrectly expressed at all. so, "among children" is not appropriate wording to show what was happening during the survey, even though we accept it's grammatically correct.­

Apparently GMAC doesn't want non-native speakers in its graduate school. What a load of rubbish.

Both natives and non-natives find this question hard, and if you get a question like this incorrect, the penalty is negligible.

RO1
The first answer choice does not represent information given in the graph because the graph gives percentages for certain groups of children of the respondents, not percentages for certain groups of respondents. Of the two remaining answer choices, B more accurately represents the information given in the graph than C.

The correct answer is children of survey respondents, the aspect for which their parents/guardians.

RO2
Among the answer choices, cultural activities has the greatest percentage of respondents for fair/poor (50% as compared to 15%, 24%, and 20%). Moreover, this is even the case if, for each of the quality of life categories besides cultural activities, all of the respondents who did not state their feelings are included (50% as compared to 15% + 4%, 24% + 2%, and 20% + 3%).

The correct answer is cultural activities.
