Which of the following must be true about the business developers at Oak Meteors during any given year?

A) Some of them meet all of their annual goals.
B) Some of those who meet all of their annual goals are among the top performers in the entire organization.
C) All of those who generate more dollars in sales than they did in the previous year qualify for the Excellence Club.
D) Some of those in the Excellence Club do not meet all of their annual goals.
E) Not all of them meet all of their annual goals.

Answer: E
Explanation: E) Business developers need to be in the top 10 percent in order to meet their annual goals, but it's impossible for everyone to be in the top 10 percent, so Choice E is true. At least some (90 percent, actually) have to fail in this regard. Choice A might be true, but it doesn't need to be. If everyone generates less than they did last year, then no one will meet all of their goals. Choice B need not be true, because we're not told anything about the entire organization. Choice C need not be true because the people who did better in any given year need not be in the top 10 percent overall. Choice D could be true, but need not be true. All of them could meet all their goals if they did better than they did last year.
