Correct option is C
The error lies in segment (c) "to receive a MBA degree."
· The correct article to use before a word beginning with a consonant sound is "an," not "a." Therefore, the correct phrase should be "to receive an MBA degree."
· The error is due to the incorrect article usage before an acronym (MBA) that starts with a vowel sound when spoken.
· "MBA" starts with the sound of the letter "M," which is a vowel sound (em), hence "an" should precede it, not "a."
·
Grammatical rule used: Use "an" before words that begin with a vowel sound to ensure smooth pronunciation.
·
Example: It is an honor to meet you. (correct use of "an" before a word starting with a vowel sound)
