I think 3 rd sentence should be "is automatically promoted."

Nope buddy. The second sentence speaks abt past tense i.e "HAD DONE" So third sentence is correct, but I guess every student must be replaced by EACH student.

OK if had done is changed to have done i.e every student who have done adequate work WAS... will again become past tense.

If we use "is" there we have to use "have" there I think.

Every is correct because every is used when there are more than two people and each is used when there are two or more than two is used. Here student is taken as a collective noun so every is more appropriate and also had is correct because the case is past perfect.

Option B should be wrong. The correct sentence structure should be.
"Every student who had done an adequate work" the article "an" is missing.
"Every student who had done an adequate work" the article "an" is missing.
