What vs That Which

by geezer0305 Wed Oct 10, 2012 6:33 am

What brought the automobile company back from the verge of bankruptcy shortly after the second world war was a special, government sanctioned price increase allowed during a period of wage and price controls.

a. What brought
b. The thing that brought
c. That which brought
d. Bringing
e.. What has brought

I was confused between [a] and [c].
Q: When do we use "What" and when would "That which" be preferred?

i don't think you would ever see the GMAT use "that which" for any reason. do you have any reason to believe otherwise?
