C - out for poor parallelism
D - out as sentence makes THE DISPOSAL OR REPAIR as subject. Can THE DISPOSAL OR REPAIR capture!!
B - out (not sure what THOSE refers to)
B/E - use of PRESENT SIMPLE suggests two possibilities (either concern persons are doing DISPOSING OR SERVICING "NOW" or as A HABIT. But the intend is to show usage of DISPOSING/SERVICING more as an future action. Second problem in E :ANYONE is more generic than SOMEONE

IMO A

A - correct
B, E - incorrect, both answers omit "of" after "dispose"
C - the two parts conjoined with "or" are not parallel
D - "disposal" and "repair" cannot be agents of an action - this answer is illogical

"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."
