CR, BTG Practice Question.

by ramannjit » Fri Nov 05, 2010 7:54 pm
Hi

Try this question, I found it to be very distracting with one answer choice. (550-700)

Human Resources: At this company we've adopted a management strategy that a worker's compensation should be based on the amount of effort the worker puts into production.

Employee: Does this mean that the least efficient employee will be given the greatest incentive to produce?

The response by the employee suggests which of the following concerns about the management strategy described in the passage?

A: The company has adopted a management strategy that compensates workers disproportionately to their years of experience.
B: The company has implemented a management strategy that will not reward this particular employee.
C: The company has installed a management strategy that is discriminatory to those employees who are creative and resourceful.
D: The company has put in place a management strategy that unfairly punishes efficiency.
E: The company has decided to use a management strategy that rewards only a small percentage of employees.

Wrong forum to post the question.

Still, is the answer D?

And I guess you are put off by answer choice C?

The option may sound too harsh
IMO best available option seems to be C...
Runner up B but that would be too specific
GMAT score is equally counted as your GPA and 78 clicks can change you life.

This question has been posted twice by the same author. This version was originally posted in the sentence correction forum so the author re-posted.
