Re: Choosing an executive for important positions in top [#permalink]
what about "they may help to highlight weaknesses and strenghts in a candidates's aptitudes."
We cannot conclude for sure that they will determine the weaknesses of candidates

Probably 4 is better because all these methods are additional methods to evaluate a candidate.

Re: Choosing an executive for important positions in top [#permalink]
The so called present tense--in this example, it is 'show up'--is a kinda modal verb.

Additional methods for helping a 'head-hunter' to choose the correct canditdate can be psychometreic testing and handwriting ananlysis.

Psychometric testing *can* be one method that helps the head-hunter. Moreover, it is possible that the head-hunter is to choose another method!

Re: Choosing an executive for important positions in top [#permalink]
well.. i chose 4...but was wrong..
i was surprised to see the OA ..its 5..
here's explanation:
Not all employers are convinced of the validdity fo p.test.otherwise all would use these tests and this is not necessarily true. so stat. c is not evident from the text.
P test shows both weakness and strenght of the candidates thereby invalidating stat D.
it remains therefore that only stat E canb e derived fromthe test.
It may be true that candidate will perform well in a p.test and then fail in personal interview .his perosonality might clash with that of potentional employer,so his or her chance of successis not, infact governed by any single factor but trather by random selection of several factors.

Wat do u say.. is that right explanation or not?

Where did you get this question from? If it is not from either official GMAT or LSAT, it is not worth pondering over it.

I had a lot of issues with BARRON specially the CRs. I just dont get some of their logic. But from what I have heard thru this forum, Barron might be misleading for GMAT prep. Specially CRs!
