GMAT

Unlike other sections on the GMAT Focus, there are just 20 questions on the Data Insights section. All 20 questions are tested around the topics of - multiple-source reasoning, table analysis, graphics interpretation, two-part analysis, and data sufficiency. 

The Data Insights (DI) section on GMAT Focus Edition is structured this way -

• DI is timed for 45 minutes
• DI consists of 20 MCQ based questions
• Questions on DI will test applicant's knowledge in the areas of:
  • Data Sufficiency
  • Multi-Source Reasoning
  • Table Analysis
  • Graphics Interpretation
  • Two-Part Analysis
• Applicants will be scored on a 60-90 scale for this section and based on the overall sectional scores, GMAT scores will be generated. 

Thus, this is how the structure of DI has been defined by GMAC for the latest GMAT exam's edition.

Get money for college. High scores can get you scholarships. You can ask for lower tuition fees. Put the score on your CV too. Some finance jobs ask for it.

Yes, taking GMAT every month is possible only if you have NIT exhausted your limits for appearing for the exam. Applicants can retake GMAT exam 05 times in a year and 08 are overall attempts. GMAT cannot be attempted on consecutive dates, rather there must be a gap between two GMAT exam dates of 16 days.

GMAT is conducted all year round and choosing an appropriate GMAT exam month is important based on:

• Applicant's GMAT exam preparation
• Date of admission application submission 
• Last date for GMAT score submission in the application
• Buffer time to appear for GMAT and also retake GMAT in case of not meeting the desired cutoff

Keeping these pointers in mind will help applicants choose the best possible GMAT month to appear for the exam and also be able to nail it.

Academic strengths: If your math skills tend to be stronger than your verbal skills, the GMAT might offer a better opportunity to show off those strengths. If you're a strong writer, consider the GRE. Due to the vocabulary involved, the GRE can sometimes be more challenging for non-native English speakers.
