Scientist have recently recieved pemission to research embryonic stem cells, derived from blastocysts or early-stage embryos, (which they believe to be capable) of generating new ccell growth and curing previously incurable ailments.
1. which they believe to be capable 2. which they believe are capable 3. which they believe will be capable 4. believed as capable 5. believed to be capable.
What do you think should be the answer? Thanks
IMO choice 5 is the answer. there is a problem of 'hanging pronoun', the word "they" doesnt have a clear reference - is it pointing to scientists or stem cells? Only choice D and E correct this error, however D is unidiomatic... E is concise and clear.
What is the Original Answer? Also, please let me know what you think about the explaination I tried to provide π

My name is saurabh and i was a student of education aisle. I will strongly advocate to keep away from this institute.
Though Ashish (the person who runs the institute) is an ISB passout, his GMAT score is 650 (strangely on pagalguy he claims that he has a 99 percentile).
After taking classes at education aisle I could make out the pathetic quality. So I requested Ashish to show his marksheet. To my shock he showed me a PDF which looked very similar to a GMAT score card and in which it was written that he has a score of 760.
When i countered him and asked him to show his score card on the official GMAT link by supplying the authentication code, he reluctantly admitted that he could just manage a 650 on the GMAT.
I wish to alert other students that whenever a GMAT faculty claims that he has taken the GMAT and has scored very high marks, insist on looking at his score report on the official gmat link (given below)
Ask the GMAT teacher to supply his authentication code, that every one gets when one takes the GMAT.
arun, he does not need to after answering so many queries of so many people without asking for anything is a feat in itself. Personally, I have found his answers to be insightful & worthy of appreciation. I already asked the poster(lumhaa2) to contact me so that we can go together to verify his claims, no response yet, this is my post (No. 56) to him: http://www.pagalguy.com/discussions/gmat-may-2012-bangalore-study-group-25074647
Not everyone thinks it is important to shout back at someone who is shouting at you. What you think his reaction should be, is exactly what he should not do. You guys simply take one person's word against a reputed Institute and a respected PG member.
Read his previous posts people, he is helping everyone for free, I did not take any classes, nor have I met him, but he cleared all doubts of so many puys, including me. I simply cannot believe what Mr lumhaa is saying.
Please meet me Mr lumhaa, I am available on all weekends, I am ready to come to the center with you and verify YOUR authenticity. PM me for my contact details if you really are what you say you are.
OR/ the other option: I have already sent you a pm with my contact details. Send me your contact details and we can meet up on Saturday (I am available ALL DAY) and we can go and meet Ashish together, after all these months, I will definitely love to meet him in person.
PS: There has been no reply either on my email or on my phone by lumhaa2, yet. Everyone can check that this ID (lumhaa2) was made on 09-Feb-12, the same day this guy decided to start throwing dirt on Ashish. IMO, lumhaa2 is a FAKE and an impostor and until he contacts me, he will remain so.
Sausi sir I second you...... lumhaa bhai created his account on 9th Feb and within 2 minutes gave 2 posts against perhaps the top poster on this thread.
Ashish sir provides the most authentic answers on what is undoubtedly the trickiest part of GMAT - the dreaded SC. His explanations and examples speak out for his credibility and personally I don't think he needs to splash his GMAT code verification link (or whatever) publicly.

The question must say "Scientists", secondly the correct idiom is "belived to be" choice 4 is out so IMO the correct choice is 5."which" should modify the subject just before it but in the question it is modifyng "early stage embroys" rather it should modify stem cells, 1, 2, 3 are out.

IMO it is (A)...I think the subject here is plural= Out of the public's interest in the details of (X) and conflicts(Y).........so it should be "have"

OA is option D, in this question the verb "have" has booming market as subject so it should be singular "has" is correct, but what i am not able to understand is which should modify the subject just before it so it is modifyng television shows so "are" should be correct but the OA says option D is corect.
someone pls explain this..... IMO option B should be the one.....

Ohk...on second thought I think OA is correct...
actually "which" is not referring to tv shows but it is pointing to "booming market for "reality" television shows". Hence, it is the market which is bringing regular" people onto the television screen

Unlike those in the United States, Japanese unions appear reluctant to organize lower-paid workers. However, I am unable to accept this. My concern - "those" in the sentence comes before what it describes (unions). Is such type of sentence construction correct in GMAT Rulebook? I am confused. Pls guide.
