GMAT DS questions should be paced at:
A3+ minutes each, longer than PS
BSame as PS, 2 minutes each
C4+ minutes each on average
DAbout 90 seconds, faster than PS
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. About 90 seconds, faster than PS
DS does not require computing the actual answer, so it can be faster than PS. The 90-second average leaves more time for harder PS questions.
