The advice given to test takers that they should not study the day before a test is particularly relevant for standardized tests in which memorization plays a small role, because test takers who jam their heads full of information are often worse off compared to that of test takers who relax on the previous day.
a. compared to that of
b. compared to those
c. than
d. than those
e. as

[spoiler]OA:C[/spoiler]

Please provide reasons for eliminating each option.

Hey mate,

What are we comparing here? Two kinds of test takers. One who jam their heads and others who don't.

A) what is it comparing? Test takers .... compared to that of test takers ..... Comparison wrong.

B) Test takers who... compared to those test takers who... Such a lengthy comparison. And isn't it a bot awkward, too. Especially when you have simpler choices that follow

C) Test takers who ...than test takers who.. Perfect comparison. Neat and meaningful

D) than those.. Why use those when just 'than' works?

E) as - wrong word used for the comparison.


Hence IMO C

why is the use of than those is incorrect, is it because of wordiness or something else?

I can't assure you, but I feel it's redundant.

You are already specifying whom you are referring to by the usage of 'who'. So, that makes the usage of those redundant.

hi hemant

i feel those is wrong here as

MORE + Than is right construction

so we used here WORSE - IInd form

now if we again use THOSE that will be repeat for noun
so only THAN is also sufficient
