Sanskrit scholar and culminated in virtually every honor that European governments and learned societies
could bestow.
(A) Miiller began his career in an unpromising apprenticeship as
(B) Miiller's career began in an unpromising apprenticeship as
(C) Miiller's career began with the unpromising apprenticeship of being
(D) Miiller had begun his career with the unpromising apprenticeship of being
(E) the career of Miiller has begun with an unpromising apprenticeship of
whats wrong with C ??
A is having modifier error.D,E are out for the wrong tense usage. I thought began with is more idiomatic than began in. So i choose C even though this option is verbose.
