Time
allotment is the key factor if we talk about cracking the CAT 2012. There is
this age old strategy that says - time allocation should be in the same
proportion as marks allotted. So it becomes obvious that if the set consist of
5 question and 10 marks out of a total of 50 marks, one should spend around 10
minutes to solve it. Again when we look at the bifurcation of these 10 minutes,
one should ideally spend 2 minutes in understanding the set. After the initial
two minutes one can judge as how to approach further. Hence the decision of selecting the set
should not be done merely on the basis of graph.
Read
for interpretation:
Interpretation
is what is tested in the section of DATA INTERPRETATION. A single
misinterpretation from the hidden texts might mean disaster. Jot down the
keywords like maximum/minimum, must be, can be, possible, etc. in your scratch
sheet. These words if not given due importance can trap you and you will end up
marking the wrong answers.
Organize
the data:
Data analysis is what is expected from
you and to check that analyzing skill of yours, generally the data given in the
question is not in the structure that is required to answer the question. Hence
the approach should be to organize data as per question asked. So that it becomes
very imperative to read the questions before starting the solutions.
