Ordered is there. We have to use subjunctive mood here.

Subjunctive word + that + subject + subjunctive verb


(A) the basic math and English comprehension of students in public schools to be tested and that the results be.................The first part does not have 'That'. Also, from a parallelism perspective, it's not parallel.

(B) that public school students should be tested for their basic math and English comprehension, with the results being........................No subjunctive. Also, with the results is not correct.

(C) the testing of students’ basic math and English comprehension in public schools and the results to be..................Parallelism & not subjunctive

(D) students’ basic math and English comprehension in public schools be tested, with their results...............That is missing. 'With their' is not correct

(E) that the basic math and English comprehension of students in public schools be tested and the results..................looks fine

OA should be E

Incorrect. illogical meaning that math and English have been ordered something to to be tested

(B) that public school students should be tested for their basic math and English comprehension, with the results being
Incorrect. "with the results being published" is not happening at the same time as students are tested

(C) the testing of students’ basic math and English comprehension in public schools and the results to be
Incorrect. missing a verb for this clause

(D) students’ basic math and English comprehension in public schools be tested, with their results
Incorrect. illogical meaning that the math and English which is in public schools should be tested

(E) that the basic math and English comprehension of students in public schools be tested and the results
Correct. Joins two clauses with proper conjunction "and" with proper meaning of the sentence
