Great DI! May I ask how many you got wrong on DI? And did you have any strategy to tackle it?

Sure.

4 wrong. I was approaching DI all wrong in first 2 attempts. Never crossed DI81. This time I ONLY looked at my previous mistakes, and solved those.

- Tried to avoid the Math like I would avoid COVID -- tried to see how to solve for something without fully calculating it
- Tables and Graphs -- all about details (cannot miss details)
- Data Sufficiency -- FULLY use the passage before jumping in into the statements; I was strong at Algebra so I always wrote down what was asked as an algebraic equation
- TPA -- For verbal, for each column I followed the Verbal section strategy to eliminate options; for Math based just focused on finding relations between the 2 columns before trying to solve fully
- MSR -- flexibility was the key -- approached it like RC in Verbal. Knew where the details were and would go back to the details if needed. I noticed I used to a miss a minor detail which would lead to at least 1 mistake in it. For example, "2 turbines of type A and 1 turbine of type B comparison" and when the question asks for some comparison, the factor of 2 would miss.

A 76th percentile Verbal score is fine.

From what I've seen, top schools prefer to see section scores that are at least 70th percentile.

So, you're set, especially with a 715 total score.
Thanks Marty. Appreciate the answer.
