I am going to face a test with the 10 questions related to the below format. However, I cannot find any material containing such type of question for my preparation, including GMAT!!!

Can anybody tell me whether the below type of question is related to Data Analysis?

Where I can find the materials for practice (website or books)? (I can't find any material related to those question so far)

Thanks a lot!

Ada, Mary, April and Joanna participated in a charity walkathon. The fastest walker returned to the finishing point in 35 minutes. Which TWO pieces of information can tell you who was the fastest walker?


(1) Ada finished the walkathon in 41 minutes.
(2) April finished the walkathon earlier than Mary by 2 minutes.
(3) Mary finished the walkathon later than Joanna by 4 minutes.
(4) Joanna finished the walkathon earlier than Ada by 6 minutes.
(5) Ada finished the walkathon later than April by 4 minutes.


A. (1) and (2)
B. (1) and (4)
C. (2) and (3)
D. (2) and (5)
E. (3) and (4)

(Answer: The winner finished the walkathon in 35 minutes. Statements (1) and (4), when taken together, tell that Joanna can finish in 35 minutes. Therefore, the correct answer is B.)

This looks like some sort of bizarre data sufficiency problem. You won't see any questions like this on the GMAT, so what test are you prepping for?

Actually you do see PS questions like this on the GMAT. I'd suggest browsing through the Equations, Inequalities and VIC's guide by Manhattan GMAT if your local library has it.

There are 1 or 2 questions very similar to this type in the OG11 as well.

REALLY?

I can't recall seeing any questions like this and I've gone through both OG11 and the MGMAT VIC's guide. Perhaps I'll have to go back through those two again. Regardless, I feel that if you're proficient in DS these question types should be a walk in the park by comparison.

I am mistaken. eschn3am is correct, this isn't a GMAT question from the OG or the MGMAT books.

Somebody told me that it is a question related GRE. Correct?

Can you suggest some website or books for that?

Thanks!
