This is question from MGMAT question bank.
Teachers in this country have generally been trained either to approach mathematics like a creative activity or that they should force students to memorize rules and principles without truly understanding how to apply them.
a) to approach mathematics like a creative activity or that they should force students to memorize rules and principles
b) to approach mathematics like a creative activity or to force students to memorize rules and principles
c) to approach mathematics as a creative activity or to force students to memorize rules and principles
d) that they should approach mathematics as a creative activity or to force students to memorize rules and principles
e) that they should approach mathematics like a creative activity or that they should force students to memorize rules and principles
OA is c
I chose (b), since my understanding is that "like" is used for nouns/prepositions and as is used for clauses. Also are there any rules
for using such as vs as. The MGMAT guide says that 'such as' should be used for examples. Does that rule apply to 'as' also?
