The test was easy enough that I mastered it after a simple brain transplant. The transplant, however, was expensive to such a degree that I had to take out a second mortgage.
This sentence merely tests the knowledge of idioms and is unlikely to be replicated on the GMAT. Here is the POE for the various options:
A) The test was easy enough that I mastered it after a simple brain transplant. The transplant, however, was expensive to such a degree that I had to take out a second mortgage. The correct idiom is "easy enough to" and not "easy enough that". Eliminate.
B) The test was so easy for me to master after a simple brain transplant, but the transplant was so expensive that I had to take out a second mortgage. The correct idiom is "so easy that" and not "so easy for". Eliminate.
C) The test was easy enough for me to master after a simple brain transplant. The transplant, however, was so expensive that I had to take out a second mortgage. Correct answer.
D) The transplant was so expensive that I had to take out a second mortgage but the test was so easy that i mastered it after this simple brain transplant. Idiomatically this is correct but the problem comes with the usage of "but" in the middle. There is no appropriate contrast that is being expressed to go with the usage of "but". Eliminate.
E) The test was easier enough for me to master it after a simple brain transplant; however, transplant was so expensive that I had to take out a second mortgage. "easier enough" is incorrect - the correct usage is "easy enough". Eliminate.
Hope this helps.

Lucky, where do you get these questions? I googled and did not find any of your questions. Can you prove that this question is from manhattan gmat?
