Question

what does the term prospective mean based on the context clues?

○ rejected

○ academic

○ potential

○ current

Explanation:

To determine the meaning of "prospective" from context clues (even without the full context, we analyze the options): "rejected" means dismissed, which is unrelated. "Academic" relates to education, not matching "prospective". "Current" refers to the present, while "prospective" implies something related to the future or potential (e.g., a prospective student is a potential student). So "potential" aligns with the meaning of "prospective" (relating to what may happen or be possible).

Answer:

C. potential
