Thanks for the link =). But it doesn't say why C is the right choice instead of D... This problem really scare the heck out of me, coming from an easier version of the DAT.
Did anyone find an answer?

Hmmm I think it's a 2 part problem. First is the opening of the epoxide, and then Fischer esterification because we see that there is a carbon between the O can the aromatic ring. There's no way to do that in D.
Thanks cmF, how did you manage to find that random pdf haha. You must be a Google god =).
