I think its E.

A- Every other profession is plural
B- this violates the parallelism needed
C- this changes the meaning and adds ambiguity
D- Whom is incorrect

the non underlined part is having pronoun their , which asks for a plural sub
only option E is providing a plural sub
C however is lacking verb

OA is E.
I missed that "anyone" is singular and chose A. :(

osirus0830 can you tell us why E is correct?
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.

E can not be correct answer b'coz when we say 'anyone ' then we are obviously including Carpenters, dentists, sewing machine operators, needlepointers, piano players etc etc.. so 'ANYONE' will cause to include them once again.

After mentioning C , D , S , M and N we need to look for those workers which are not included till yet.

Only option D fits the bill.

New suggestions are welcome...

Any can be either singular or plural ( Remember SANAM pronouns? )

So S-V agreement issue is solved here by putting people as an antecedent.
