Which prepositions are suitable in the sentence above? If there is one that is not, how can I rephrase the sentence and make it right?

"...with the result of..." is OK.

For the example you gave, "with" fits perfectly.

As far as a general rule goes though, it's not completely simple, as context can have an effect:

I don't agree with you.
You don't agree with me.
I don't agree with the result.
You don't agree with my interpretation of the result.
They agree with me.
They didn't agree with the scores = All of them (as a collective) thought the scores were wrong.
They didn't agree on the scores = They argued with each other over what the correct scores were.
We don't agree on/about this particular subject.


I'm sorry, but I can't agree with you on/about that.
I'm sorry, but if we can't agree on a price, then I can't sell you the car.

It's complicated - do you agree with me on that?

The result of the oral test, but the grade on the oral test. Is that right?
