Question

The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don’t find any error, mark ‘No error’ as your answer.

My brother received / his MBA degree into / the university last year.

Accepted Answer

The error is in the part 'his MBA degree into'. The correct preposition to use with 'received a degree' is 'from', not 'into'. The correct phrase should be 'received his MBA degree from the university last year'. Hence, 'into' is incorrect here.
