The incorrect sentence is:

D. "Sean completely forgot that everyone in his class was scheduled to gives a presentation today."

The word "gives" should be changed to "give" to correctly match the plural subject "everyone in his class." The corrected sentence would be: "Sean completely forgot that everyone in his class was scheduled to give a presentation today."
