How to Pass Data Interpretation Tests: Unbeatable Practice for Numerical and Quantitative Reasoning and Problem Solving Tests (Testing Series) 1st Edition

The book has a lot of problems which are fun to work through, but some of the problems are stated very poorly. Which kind of takes away from it since you have to time yourself as you work through the practice problem sets. As a result, you might get a badly stated problem which throws off your whole time scheme and hence renders that test useless.By the way, I am an Engineering PhD from Northwestern University, so its not as if I cannot solve the problems.Still, the book has a lot of problems which is perfect for practicing ... just skip those which are poorly worded. Its just that had the author cared enough to edit the problems carefully, he would have ended up with a much better product.

Absolutely agree with the other comments. The book is good for practice but sometimes poorly worded (maybe intentionally)?One other point to note is that some of the tabular data is so poorly laid out that you waste a lot of time simply reading it and for timed tests this skews the results.What i liked is that there are a large number of tests which is great.

A useful addition if you are getting in as much practice as possible before attending an assessment centre. There were, however, a few errors (as mentioned by other reviewers) which will, I'm sure, be corrected in the next edition.

Overall I am quite satisfy I bought this book.There are many practice question as the book suggests, which I like the best. However, few questions I have found are very confusing and some answer explanation difficult to understand. Other than that it definitley met it purposes for me.

Too basic for any graduate exam. A waste of money.

If your a graduate this book has a lot of practice, but I would suggest also go online and time yourself. Without the time pressure this book will not help. The examples are allright but you need to research more online tests to be fully prepared. This will give you a rough understanding but nothing major.

This book is great for going through a large number of practice questions of varying difficulty, and training your brain. But it is surprising to see so many errors. In my last set of 80 practice questions, five wrong answers were provided. I can tell you (using a calculator), that's a 6.25% error rate!
