(A) that such a study has not been practical
This is the correct answer
(B) that studying it that way has not been impractical
Pronoun(it) reference error and why "has not been Impractical"(meaning)
(C) for such studies as this to have been impractical
Why use "such" again, meaning error
(D) as to not make such a study practical
meaning again
(E) as to be impractical of study
"Impractical of"
Thanks and Regards,

(A) that such a study has not been practical
(B) that studying it that way has not been impractical ---> that refers to what
(C) for such studies as this to have been impractical ----> this refers to what ???
(D) as to not make such a study practical
(E) as to be impractical of study --> meaning....


between A and D....hmmm..The tense in D is wrong..comparing to "can be observed "not make" is different tense.....

i will pick A..
