Complete Question Explanation
(The complete setup for this game can be found here: lsat/viewtopic.php?t=4778)
The correct answer choice is (C)
To attack this question, use proper List question technique: take one rule at a time and apply it to all the answer choices, then take another rule, and apply it to the remaining answer choices, and so on, until only one answer choice remains. However, since the question concerns only what major each student is (not what speech topic he or she delivers), focus your attention on the rules that govern the assignment of majors to students. The 2-2-1 distribution of G, H, and J, respectively, along with the fifth and the sixth rules of the game, should be sufficient to eliminate four of the five answer choices.
Answer choice (A): This answer choice violates the 2-2-1 distribution of G, H, and J, respectively, and is therefore incorrect.
Answer choice (B): This answer choice violates the 2-2-1 distribution of G, H, and J, respectively, and is therefore incorrect.
Answer choice (C): This is the correct answer choice.
Answer choice (D): This answer choice violates the fifth rule and is therefore incorrect.
Answer choice (E): This answer choice violates the sixth rule and is therefore incorrect.
