As Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin can be seen as a result of using more and more radical means to express Romantic ideas.

1. As Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin
2. Not unlike Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin
3. Such as Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin
4. Not unlike Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits
5. Like Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits

Choose 2

eliminate 5 as after 'like wagner', it shoudl be a noun
eleimnate 1- 'as' should introduce a clause

not unlike - almoset equivalent to 'like'
so, it should modify the following word
so, elimnate 4

Even in option B, isn't "Wagner" compared with "the 'modernistic' traits"?

the question is ambiguous and it is not clearly drafted
anyway this is my analysis

If wagner is the name of a person then,
1. As Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- wrong comparison
2. Not unlike Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- wrong comparison
3. Such as Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- wrong usage of such as
4. Not unlike Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits- wrong comparison
5. Like Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits- wrong comparison

If wagner is a type of trait then, we should use like to compare nouns. hence,
1. As Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- like must be used
2. Not unlike Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- ok but E is better
3. Such as Wagner, the 'modernistic' traits in Scriabin- wrong use of such as
4. Not unlike Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits- ok but E is better as there is no double negative in E
5. Like Wagner, Scriabin's 'modernistic' traits- fits the bill if the first statement is assumed
target score- anything above 700
preferably above 750
gmat prep 1- 710
powerprep 1- 730
barrons test 1- 760
kaplan test 1- 620 (lol)
kaplan test 2- 680
score 800 1-720
score 800 2- 730
score 800 3-750
score 800 4-720
score 800 5- 710
gmat prep 1 (retake)- 710
gmat prep 2- 730
gmat prep 2 (retake)- 720
actual gmat - 770 :)

The more I look at the more I think you are right (this question is ambiguous). If you were not constrained by answers A to E what do you think the answer should be?
