Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: went to his house
Solution : The correct choice is the third option .
Explanation : The original sentence contains a grammatical inconsistency in verb tenses. The use of "go" (present tense) and "could" (past tense) is not consistent. To maintain grammatical correctness and ensure a consistent past tense, the substitution "went to his house" is appropriate.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: I went to his house personally so that I could persuade him to continue his studies.
