Data based where data given and the answer is to be based on analysis of the data,
There can be a scenario wherein you will be tested on your ethical standing,
Thirdly there can be a mixture of both of the above.
So, analyse the situation first
Understanding the motives behind the test will help you align your thinking process with the expectations of the test setter. Thus before answering a question you need to first analyse the situation from the different perspectives, i.e., the economic as well as the social perspective.
Now frame the answer in your mind by gauging the motive behind the question. Other options is to eliminate the incorrect options. So in next 10 days prepare on this pattern to crack the Decision Making (DM) section.
Satyarajsinh Jethwa and Sakshi with high XAT percentile beyond 85 and 88 suggest the aspirants to take more Mocks to improve time management and accuracy level in the exam.
