To my knowledge, everything in green acts as the postmodification of the noun students.
So the question is, are there any differences in meaning between the three? Is, for instance, the use of to-infinitive clause significantly different to that of -ing clause? Can the three be used interchangeably?
Looking forward to some response.  |
Of the three sentences I could see me saying #1, #3 is not correct at all and #2 seems ok but a little awkward.
