that I should get a job after high school?

A. Properly constructed sentence
B. Misplaced part

am I CORRECT?

Joyce, you are absolutely right on! Good work.

Yes, you are correct! The sentence "Do you advise me to go to college or that I should get a job after high school?" lacks parallel parts. In order to make it parallel, you could rephrase it as "Do you advise me to go to college or to get a job after high school?" This way, both options are stated in a similar format and the sentence becomes grammatically correct. The correct answer is C - Lacks parallel parts. Great job!
