Hi there, I have a quick question regarding subject verb agreement. Which verb should be used in this case- 'is' or 'are'? A good academic profile and an intermediate level of German (2 years of German studies) is/are required.'
Thanks in advance for your help grammarphiles!
@Chynagyrl,

The "and" makes it conjunctive, therefore the plural verb "are" is required.
Had the disjunctive "or" been used instead, the singular "is" would be correct.
