Question

PTSD sufferers may experience flashbacks ____ they feel they are going through the ordeal.
A) in which

C) where
D) how
E) what

The key says the answer is A, but what is wrong with C if there is anything considering the fact that where may mean 1 a: at, in, or to what place b: at, in, or to what situation, position, direction, circumstances, or respect

Answer

The answer is A because you can experience something "in" a flashback, but not "where a flashback".
If you change the sentence around this makes more sense:
They feel they are going through the ordeal in their flashback. (not "where" there flashback)
