Choose the most appropriate option to complete the following sentence:
Your application form must be received in this office____9 am ___the first of March.
Solution
✅ Correct Option: 1
A deadline time takes 'by' (not later than 9 am), and a specific date takes 'on' (on the first of March). 'Until' implies continuous action, 'at/during' and 'since/for' do not fit a deadline plus a date. Hence 'by, on' is correct.
