If you guys notice the options carefully you can see that the first three options constitutes one complete sentence. So the correct sentence would be "We discussed the problem so thoroughly on the eve of the examination that I found it very easy to work it out.".
Therefore "about" is totally not required whereas "so" is required which makes the first option incorrect.
Therefore "about" is totally not required whereas "so" is required which makes the first option incorrect.

"About" is okay but "so" is unnecessary. The word "thoroughly" already explained the depth of that verb.

@All.
Here no need to write " about". Because we write "about" for some person or things and discuss is neither a person nor things.
