Answer 1

I'm no expert, but multitasking is a no bueno. Because multitasking reduces your efficiency and performance because your brain can only focus on one thing at a time. When you try to do two things at once, your brain lacks the capacity to perform both tasks successfully.

Therefore I would choose A, considering he could easily workout another time, whilst the test is a one time thing. He can't redo the test, but he can workout again. So my answer is A.

If he HAS to workout and study at the same time, then C would be appropriate.

I hope this helps!
