CAT 2012: Data Interpretation (DI) is an Intensive section

CAT 2012 aspirants must note that DI is the calculation intensive portion of the exam. It consists of a myriad of graphs, charts and tables from which you will have to glean and analyze data. 

The key to cracking this area is to quickly identify the key pieces of data that you will require to work on the questions asked. It is not unknown for question-setters of the CAT to try and bewilder students with a large amount of data, most of it unnecessary.

As a rule, the more the data presented, the easier the questions that follow, so don’t lose heart if you see a table with 10 columns occupying one whole page. On the other hand, several seemingly innocuous questions may trip you up.

Therefore, you are advised to look at the questions first to get an idea of what data you need to be searching for in the graphs/charts/tables in the main question asked.

Since CAT 2012 is approaching very fast , you must practice with Mock Tests to achieve mission CAT 2012.
