Agree with E.
Clear and Concise.

Please try to post the OA later on and not in the initial post. Let everybody have their chance with the question. :wink:

"would" is implicit here.

I don't think your sentence is gramatically correct mate:
"You prepare for the exam and in the mean time I make the coffee." will is not implicit - it needs to be stated.
On the same note, would needs to be included in option E above.

Yes, "will" is not implitic in the example cited above.

I believe the grammatical rule being tested here is the "participle phrase."
