Dear Friends,

I was having problems in answering the following question.

A study on couples' retirement transitions found that women who took new jobs after retiring from their primary careers reported high marital satisfaction, more than when retiring completely.
(A) more than when retiring
(B) more than if they were to retire
(C) more so than those who retired
(D) which was more so than those retiring
(E) which was more than if they had retired


Please help.

OA after some discussions.

Regards
Deano.

Is it C ?

But doesn't c changes the meaning? Between b and c, I would choose b.c.

IMO C.

B,D : they there refer to the same set of women so it compares them to themselves , which is worng.

A,D : retiring is not the right verb.
