Given: Each of C, D, E, F, S, T and U has an exam on a different day of a week, starting from Monday and ending on Sunday of the same week.

There are 7 days in a week and 7 people, so each person has an exam on one day.

1) F has the exam on Friday.

Day Person
Monday  
Tuesday  
Wednesday  
Thursday  
Friday F
Saturday  
Sunday  

 

2) Only two people have their exams between T and F. T should be before F.

Day Person
Monday  
Tuesday T
Wednesday  
Thursday  
Friday F
Saturday  
Sunday  

3) Only four people have their exams between E and T.

Day Person
Monday  
Tuesday T
Wednesday  
Thursday  
Friday F
Saturday  
Sunday E


4) S has the exam immediately after U.

If S is immediately after U, then U and S must occupy two consecutive empty slots.

So U is on Wednesday and S is on Thursday.

Day Person
Monday  
Tuesday T
Wednesday U
Thursday S
Friday F
Saturday  
Sunday E

 

5) D does not have the exam on Monday.

Since D does not have the exam on Monday, D must have the exam on Saturday.

This leaves Monday for C.

Day Person
Monday C
Tuesday T
Wednesday U
Thursday S
Friday F
Saturday D
Sunday E

 

Four people have their exams before D and after C.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
