I will choose D (All people eligible for the internship program hold Bachelor degrees), because the statement explicitly states the same (see the bolded part)
The satement is as follows

Let B = Person holding Bachelor's degree, E = Eligible for DA's office, L = Likely to gain Law school admission
No person without a Bachelor's degree is eligible to participate in the internship program means:
E -> B and ~B -> ~E
Also, "If a person meets the eligibility requirements for the program, that person is likely to gain admission to the local law school" means that
E-> L and ~L -> ~E
Fundamental concepts -> Some = "Atleast one and may be ALL"
So if "Some people with a Bachelor's degree are eligible for the internship program with the district attorney's office" it does not have to mean that there are people with Bachelor's degree who are ineligible!
Given the above, the only thing we can be sure is that there are SOME people who are elgible for Internship and E -> L so there are some people who are likely to gain admission to the Law School.

I dont get it...Isnt this correct
Dont have Bach deg -> get no Intertnship
get Internship -> have bach deg
Like for instance
Dont have money -> get No service
get service -> have money
May be this is one of those questions that GMAT uses to test if you are lucky...I thought C is the trap...and selected D....couldn't refute D either...but D is so obvious....

D is not wrong but less plausible.
D says, All people eligible for the internship program hold Bachelor degrees.
D is very very strong. How do you know they dont hold a masters or Phd? I think the wording of this choice is very airtight. For a choice to be true, all the things need to be true (no more, no less).
C is very safe to infer. C says, SOME people who have B degree are LIKELY to gain admission to the local law school if they apply

This was a poor question
I never saw a question in Kaplan or the OG with such poor choices.
Clearly D is the best answer.
C can't even be inferred from the information.
