The Scottish university __ ______ now boasts a student body that is __% American.

• A. The University of Edinburgh, 15
• B. St. Andrew's, 20
• C. St. Andrews, 30
• D. The University of Glasgow, 25

Answer: (B)

Naming a Scottish university and inserting a percentage into a sentence. The sentence flows most naturally when the university name is a compact, two-word proper noun that people commonly use. St. Andrew's fits that pattern, so the sentence reads smoothly as: The Scottish university St. Andrew's now boasts a student body that is 20% American. Using longer forms like The University of Edinburgh after The Scottish university creates awkward repetition, and St. Andrews can imply a different naming convention or feel less precise in this structure. The percent should be a clean numeral, and 20% fits neatly into the sentence.
