The correct answer is option 2 i.e. R

1. R's rank is higher than U but lower than T while U scores lower than P.

2. P is the second-lowest among all.

i.e. T > R > P > U

3. S is lower than T but higher than R.

i.e. T > S > R > P > U

4. Q is neither top nor least ranked among all but a higher rank than S.

i.e. T > Q > S > R > P > U

Hence, the correct answer is R.
