Problem 3 - Entrance Test

The committee are divided in their opinions on whether the new policy will effectively address the concerns about funding for the program.

Correct: C

The subject 'committee' is singular and requires a singular verb ('is'). The pronoun following must also be singular ('its') because the committee is a collective noun acting as one entity. The phrase 'divided in its opinion' is the correct idiom and avoids the plural 'their.'
