Hi abhasjha,
This SC deals primarily with Parallelism rules, but there is a great Pronoun issue that we can start with:
1) Pronouns: Each of the answer choices uses either "each" (singular) or "all" (plural). The sentence uses the pronoun "its" in the second non-underlined portion of the prompt. "Each" goes with "its." Eliminate B, C and D.
2) Parallelism: The words "with" and "while" are not Parallel elements. Eliminate E.
Final Answer: A
GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,
