I think the answer must be: A and B
You are thinking in wrong manner.
The local preference is used to manipulate the traffic in other direction. It have a scope of local AS.
The MED cannot be used because by default (without path-selection always-compare-med knob) it is used only for paths with the same neighboring AS numbers at the front of the AS path.
So BC is 100% right answer.
