Can you please explain the correct answer for this question and explanations of the incorrect answers? thanks

For a Must Be False question, look for something impossible, studyhelp20. The key to this one is the JG block - because of that rule, either J is Wednesday and G is Thursday, or else J is Thursday and G is Friday. No matter what, either J or G MUST be on Thursday, so there is no way that H is the only meeting on Thursday, making answer C impossible and therefore the correct answer.

A. H can be the only meeting on Wednesday. That would put the JG block on Thursday and Friday, and then to ensure that K and G are close enough to each other to satisfy the last rule of the game we would put them both on Friday (doesn't matter which is morning and which is afternoon). L is forced into Thursday morning, putting J in the afternoon.
B. G can be all alone on Thursday - see the templates in the main setup thread.
D. K can be the only one on Friday (and in fact that happened in question 20, so use your prior work to quickly eliminate this answer)
E. L can be Friday morning - again, the templates will prove that

I wouldn't go through testing every answer. I would scan the answers, sorting losers and contenders and looking for obvious trouble, and answer C is an obvious problem due to the JG block. Seeing that, I would suggest you pick that answer and move on without further delay!
