Hi,

I thought the answer was B) but turned out to be C).

"after when" is wrong?

259. During Roosevelt’s years in office Black Americans began voting for Democrats rather than Republicans in national elections, but Black support for Democrats at the state and local levels developed only after when civil rights legislation was supported by Harry Truman.
(A) developed only after when civil rights legislation was supported by Harry Truman
(B) developed only after when Harry Truman supported civil rights legislation
(C) developed only after Harry Truman’s support of civil rights legislation
(D) develops only at the time after the supporting of civil rights legislation by Harry Truman
(E) developed only after there being Harry Truman’s support of civil rights legislation

"only after when" sounds wordy

redundant.

MC, do you follow any strategies to attack SC like they give in Kaplan or PR or @ MGMAT?

D- wrong use of tense develops (eliminate)
E - "only after their being" - extremely wordy
A,B - "only after when"; again wordy and redundant
Hence C
