PrepTest C, Section 2, Question 13
Ramona: One of the primary values of a university education is the intellectual growth that results from exposure to a wide range of ideas. Too many students miss this because they choose technical majors only to improve their chances on the job market. Recent pressures to graduate as quickly as possible only make matters worse.

Martin: But we have to be realistic. My brother graduated last year as an English major, but he's working as a waiter. Anyway, you are forgetting that even students in technical majors are required to take some liberal arts classes.

The conversation most strongly supports the claim that Ramona and Martin agree with each other that
students are stimulated to grow intellectually only in English classes
only graduates with degrees in technical subjects get good jobs
not every university class exposes students to a wide range of ideas
intellectual growth is more important than financial security
financial security is more important than intellectual growth
