(A) that may be unlikely to emerge in other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviewing
Noun and verb. wrong parallelism
(B) whose emergence is unlikely in other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviews
whose?? No way
(C) that might not emerge in other procedures or in weeks of ordinary interviews
parallel (better over A as might not is concise than may be unlikely to)
(D) that may not emerge under other procedures or weeks of ordinary interviews
under is wrong
(E) unlikely not to emerge during weeks of ordinary interviewing or in other procedures
during is wrong and unlikely not is just plain wrong.
IMO C I believe the reason why C is correct is usage of IN rather than might !!! in other procedures and in weeks ..... is correct usage !! D losses on this since it says under other procedures or week ... under week is wrong usage one query which i have here is MIGHT NOT indicates uncertainty where as may not indicates surety !!! hence here better option would be usage of may rather than might ,may be A can be considered for the same reason stated here !!can anyone help !!!

here is something on might vs. may. I got it while surfing net.
"So remember to use may when the outcome is likely and might when the outcome is less likely or uncertain. But also remember that you use might for everything in the past tense. Also, it's OK to use might when you're writing about negative outcomes, even if they're likely outcomes, if using may would make people think you were talking about having permission."
by looking at this "might" fits better here.

by looking at this "might" fits better here. Yes rightly said ,consider following: you may go to party !!! ORDER You might go to party !!!! negative perception You might beat him there!!! so there is a difference in terms of tone and certainty too!!! I think C here is more concise than A !!!

It also said "might" needs to be used for everything in the past tense. I might go to a party. How is this past tense? spriya wrote: neeshpal wrote: here is something on might vs. may. I got it while surfing net.
