Total applicants = 40
Political science = 15 and Non political science = 40 - 15 = 25
GPA > 3.0 = 20 and GPA <= 3.0 = 20
10 Non political science students had GPA <= 3.0 --> 15 Non political science students had GPA > 3.0
GPA > 3.0 in political science = Total - (GPA > 3.0 in non political science) = 20 - 15 = 5
Answer: A
Political science = 15 and Non political science = 40 - 15 = 25
GPA > 3.0 = 20 and GPA <= 3.0 = 20
10 Non political science students had GPA <= 3.0 --> 15 Non political science students had GPA > 3.0
GPA > 3.0 in political science = Total - (GPA > 3.0 in non political science) = 20 - 15 = 5

Hi All,
This Overlapping Sets question is a 'lift' of an Official Guide question:

GMAT assassins aren't born, they're made,

Total No of Students = 40
Majored in PS = 15
Avg > 3.0 = 20
No major and Avg < 3.0 = 10 =>Majored in P.S + Avg > 3.0 = 40-10 = 30 i.e Majored in PS + AVG > 3.0 = 30
Majored in PS Only + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) + Avg > 3.0 = 15 + 20 = 35
30 + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) = 35
(Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) = 5
Majored in PS = 15
Avg > 3.0 = 20
No major and Avg < 3.0 = 10 =>Majored in P.S + Avg > 3.0 = 40-10 = 30 i.e Majored in PS + AVG > 3.0 = 30
Majored in PS Only + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) + Avg > 3.0 = 15 + 20 = 35
30 + (Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) = 35
(Major in PS + Avg > 3.0) = 5
