What is the source of these sentences?
"Adeptly" is an adverb and cannot correctly modify "manner".
In your second sentence, both "attaining" and "to attain" can act as nouns and nothing in the sentence strictly requires parallelism, as far as the GMAT is concerned. Did you see this on a GMAT question?
