IMO correct answer is B
A survey of American business schools concludes that female students are more concerned about job discrimination than male students.
(A) female students are more concerned about job discrimination than male students - If we go by the meaning, incorrect comparison is stated here, a clause "female students are more concerned about job discrimination" is being compared with a phrase "male students" - (Lets go by the meaning - it is stating that female students are more concerned about job discrimination, they are less concerned about "male students" )- Incorrect
(B) female students are more concerned about job discrimination than male students are - Correct; as both the entities being compared are in same form - (also - meaning is kept intact)
(C) female students, as opposed to male students, are more concerned about job discrimination - "as opposed to male students" is used as a modifier, that is modifying "female students", this usage in not correct as per the context of the sentence - Incorrect
(D) female students are more concerned about job discrimination than male students are concerned - Redundant usage of "concerned" again. - Incorrect
(E) female students are more concerned about job discrimination than their male counterparts - awkward usage & again incorrect comparison as stated in Option A
