Which two students are Engineering students?
  1. A and C
  2. B and F
  3. C and F
  4. B and E

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - C and F
A is neither Law nor Engineering, so A studies only Medicine. D is neither Medical nor Engineering, so D studies only Law. A, B, D and E are not Engineering, so the two Engineering students are C and F. C, E, F and D are not Medical, so the two Medical students are A and B. B is not Engineering and must differ from A, so B studies Law and Medicine. E is neither Engineering nor Medical, so E studies Law. Engineering students: C and F.
