Answer: A) but he also scored the highest in the class.

Explanation: parallelism or parallel structure is a literary device that consists in the repetition of the grammatical structure of different words or phrases in a sentence or paragraph, in order to emphasize an idea or to create an impact in the audience. From the given options, the one that best completes the sentence in parallel structure, is option A, because it mantains the same tense (the verbs are in past: "got" and "scored"), and it also mantains the sense of the sentence: “After studying, Derek not only got an A on the test, but he also scored the highest in the class."
