Charts, Graphs & Tables in Reading

Some Reading & Writing questions include a graph, table, or chart alongside the passage.


Question types:

1. "Which statement is best supported by the data in the figure?"

2. "Which data point most effectively illustrates the author's claim?"


Strategy:

1. Read the graph title and axis labels carefully

2. Identify the trend (increasing, decreasing, stable, variable)

3. Match the trend to the specific claim in the question

4. Watch units — thousands vs. millions, percentages vs. raw numbers


Common trap: An answer that describes a real trend in the graph but doesn't relate to the author's specific argument. The data AND the claim must align.
