Opening it in a sandbox sounds like overkill to me.

Quarantine it! Better safe than sorry.

I wouldn't just delete it, that seems risky.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I was thinking maybe Option C, Season, since the time of year could impact what customers are looking for. But Expense also makes sense. I'll have to think this through a bit more.

Based on the information provided, I think using Data Designer to link the student and alumni data to the contact record is the best first step. Then we can look at using Synchronized Data Sources to pull in the other external data.

I'm not sure about this one. The information provided doesn't seem to clearly point to any of the answer choices. I'll need to review the concepts around credit policy changes and their impacts on financial metrics.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll have to think it through carefully and review the HTML5 spec to make sure I get the right answer.
