b. 2
c. 3
d. 4
e. 5
ANSWER: 2
Replace 'have' with 'has'.
'More than one' is always followed by singular noun and singular verb.
The correct sentence should be: More than one student has taken the interview for this company.
e.g. More than one room is vacant.
Note that, in case of, 'More + plural noun + than one', verb is also plural.
e.g. More students than one are late.
