You create a table that has the StudentCode, SubjectCode, and Marks columns to record mid-year marks for

students. The table has marks obtained by 50 students for various subjects.

You need to ensure that the following requirements are met:

Students must be ranked based on their average marks.

If one or more students have the same average, the same rank must

be given to these students.

Consecutive ranks must be skipped when the same rank is assigned.

Which Transact-SQL query should you use?

A. SELECT StudentCode as Code,

RANK() OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value

FROM StudentMarks

GROUP BY StudentCode

B. SELECT Id, Name, Marks,

DENSE_RANK() OVER(ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank

FROM StudentMarks

C. SELECT StudentCode as Code,

DENSE_RANK() OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value

FROM StudentMarks

GROUP BY StudentCode

D. SELECT StudentCode as Code,

NTILE(2) OVER(ORDER BY AVG (Marks) DESC) AS Value

FROM StudentMarks

GROUP BY StudentCode

E. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM (

SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks,

RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY SubjectCode ORDER BY Marks ASC) AS Rank

FROM StudentM

arks) tmp

WHERE Rank = 1

F. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM (

SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks,

RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY SubjectCode ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank

FROM StudentMarks) tmp

WHERE Rank = 1

G. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks

AS Value FROM (

SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks,

RANK() OVER(PARTITION BY StudentCode ORDER BY Marks ASC) AS Rank

FROM StudentMarks) tmp

WHERE Rank = 1

H. SELECT StudentCode AS Code,Marks AS Value FROM (

SELECT StudentCode, Marks AS Marks,

RANXO

OVER(PARTITION BY StudentCode ORDER BY Marks DESC) AS Rank

FROM StudentMarks) tmp

WHERE Rank = 1
