    A Q Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B L Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C N Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D M Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Three students scored more than P, who scored just more than M. O scored more than Q and L. O does not score the highest number of marks. We will get E scored the 4th highest number of marks. M scored the 5th highest number of marks. N scored the highest number of marks, O scored the 2nd highest number of marks. Either Q or L scored the 3rd highest or lowest number of marks. The correct order of students according to number of marks scored by them: N > O > Q/L > P > M > L/Q Now, If L scored more marks than P, then, Q scored the lowest number of marks. N > O > L > P > M > Q Q scored the lowest number of marks.
