Parallism error: attended...received....developed...

Can you elaborate? IMO B is also parallel if we consider developed ... as a seperate action.

If there would have been a comma before "and developed" then probably yes what you say would have been correct.

hmmm...so you might have a point...the gmat loves these tricks. i went with A, because of the "and" binds "receiving..." and "developing" to the same part of speech, hence parellism. If they wanted to separate the actions, they would have put a comma between "analysis" and "developed." As for C, I didn't go with that because C reintroduces the subject "he" when it doesn't have to. However I would not be surprised with C, because it might not commit any grammatical errors per se.madhur_ahuja wrote:Can you elaborate?

IMO A. Its a superficial parallelism. Attended is a main verb. RECEIVING and DEVELOPING are two sub verbs. RECEIVING and DEVELOPING should be parallel.madhur_ahuja wrote:After moving to Switzerland in the 1890’s, Albert Einstein attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, receiving in-depth training in quantitative analysis and developing a foundation for his future work in mathematical physics.

attended the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, received in-depth training in quantitative analysis, developing
attending the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, receiving in-depth training in quantitative analysis, and developing
If you take the meaning, by attending the school, he received training and developed (Don't worry about ING and Past tenses I used in this sentence. I used them just to explain the meaning)

IMO C is commiting the mistake of not completing the list....IMO last item of the list has to be completed by "and"...which is not the case with C...
attended, received and "he developed"....
IMO we need "and" before received to be correct.

goelmohit2002, you do have a point. I have doubts on C now.
