Read the excerpt from a student's argumentative essay.

Students at Glenmore High demand an increase in the number of advanced placement classes. In order to compete with other college-bound students, we must have access to more rigorous courses. I mean, if we can't show that we took tough courses, colleges will turn us down.

How can the final sentence best be revised for this argument?

A Tough work is the key to proving to college admissions that we've got what they want.

B We need tougher courses on our transcripts, or else nobody's going to notice us.

C Without proof of challenging courses, colleges might disregard our transcripts.

D Challenging courses separate college-bound students from the rest of the pack
