Time and again it has been shown that students who attend colleges with low
faculty/student ratios get the most well-rounded education. As a result, when my
children are ready to attend college, I’ll be sure they attend a school with a very
small student population.
Which of the following, if true, identifies the greatest flaw in the reasoning
above?
A. A low faculty/student ratio is the effect of a well-rounded education, not
its source.
B. Intelligence should be considered the result of childhood environment,
not advanced education.
C. A very small student population does not by itself, ensure a low
faculty/student ratio.
D. Parental desires and preferences rarely determine a child’s choice of a
college or university.
Students must take advantage of the low faculty/student ratio by
intentionally choosing small classes.
