OPTION A - INCORRECT
Being taught is incorrect as it means that the concept was taught in past and not in present.

OPTION B - INCORRECT
This also has the same reason with option A due to the use of "being taught". Moreover, the use of commas create a run-on. This, it is incorrect

OPTION C - CORRECT
This option has the best comparison that is flawless and the position of the punctuation mark is well placed. It 's therefore the correct answer,

OPTION D - INCORRECT
"Throughout the world" modifies schools. Meanwhile, "Throughout the world" should modify TEACH. Reason for it being incorrect.

OPTION E - INCORRECT
Correct comparison structure is AS IMPORTANT AS rather than AS IMPORTANT THAN. Moreover, "Throughout the world" incorrectly modifies "schools" instead it should modify "TEACH". It is therefore wrong.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
