【正确答案】Our target candidates are outstanding students who are selected on the basis of their grades in the college entrance examination plus their scores in the NYU's talent assessment.

【答案解析】 原句是并列复合句，而译文采用了主从复合句的形式、汉语中多用主动语态，英语中多用被动语态，所以在汉译英时可把对应的主动语态转换为相应的被动语态，即把主语提前，其后用be+动词的过去分词形式，此句即可把第二个分句中的“选拔学生”译为“学生被选拔”，进而把第二个分句译为定语从句修饰outstanding students。
