If the word SCHOOL is coded by writing alternate letters starting from the first, the code is

  • A. SHO
  • B. COL
  • C. SCO
  • D. SHL

Explanation

Taking the first, third and fifth letters of S, C, H, O, O, L gives S, H and O. Starting from the second letter instead would give C, O and L, which is the alternative offered. Reading the instruction precisely, including where the count starts, decides between the two.
