D) You should include only the amount by which your room-and-board expenses exceed the expenses for rent and food if you were not in college.

Explanation:

If you decide not to go to college you might be making a mistake, but you will still be alive, and you would also need to spend money on food and shelter. The only exception here is you decide to enter the Army, then your living expenses will be extremely low.

That is why you need to include only room and board expenses that exceed your normal living expenses.
