    Solution

    Solution Checking B-E Students have struggled in pre-pandemic times with preferred colleges making late admission decisions forcing them to take the superior options. The sentence above is contextually wrong at it mentions that students were not able to get their preferred college due to the late admission decisions and therefore it forced them to take superior options which makes the sentence absurd. The word ‘superior’ must be replace by its antonym ‘inferior’ to make the sentence correct. The correct sentence would be: Students have struggled in pre-pandemic times with preferred colleges making late admission decisions forcing them to take the inferior options. Checking C-F Last year’s economic stress exposed fault lines in the exist GST framework. The sentence above is grammatically wrong as there is wrong use of the adjective ‘exist’. There has to be participle use of ‘ing’ with adjective i. e adjective + ’ing’ before the noun, in this case GST framework. Therefore the correct sentence would be: Last year’s economic stress exposed fault lines in the existing GST framework. Checking A-D Given the like hood you are a WhatsApp user, you may have seen a conspicuous notice when you open it -your messages are protected by end to end encryption. The above sentence is grammatically and contextually correct and therefore option A is the correct answer.
