Teacher:Given the Question and Answer pair, detect whether the answer is acceptable or not. Denote acceptable answer as "yes", otherwise denote as "no". An acceptable answer is consistent with the context in question, detailed, long, and uses general knowledge of English. Answers that are not definite and suggest a variety of options are not acceptable answers.
Teacher: Now, understand the problem? Solve this instance: Question: I am just wondering about the difference between: in contrast to and in contrast with
Answer: In fact, they could be used interchangeably, however, "in contrast with" is more common in UK English. Moreover, When we say "contrast with", CONTRAST is behaving as a verb. Example: "He likes to contrast his checkered jacket with plain pants" or "his checkered jacket contrasts with his plain pants." But when we say "in contrast to", it is behaving as a noun. Example: "His checkered jacket stands in contrast to his plain pants." (As you can see, in this sentence "stands" is the verb). (Testluv, GMAT Instructor, Beat the GMAT forum).
