Official Explanation:
Answer: D
(A) The plural subject Priscilla and I does not agree with the singular verb was.
(B) The use of the additive phrase as well as implies that the subject is only Priscilla, and the singular Priscilla does not agree with the plural verb were. Also me is the incorrect pronoun; we require the subject pronoun I.
(C) Me is the incorrect pronoun; we require the subject pronoun I.
(D) The correct answer. The singular Priscilla agrees with the singular was.
(E) Now it is the teacher who is doing the action and I am receiving it; hence, the pronoun should be the objective me.

hello Bunuel,
thanks for that concise explanation.
Can you elaborate this same concept in a broader manner like what are the other phrases, similar to "as well as" in this case, that take the same rules for singular plural subjects - How to identify Primary subjects/secondary subjects and thereafter what verb should they take?
