Final answer:

Dropping out of college does not guarantee an easier time finding a job, as employers typically value a college degree and relevant skills and experience.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the text, all of the arguments except for option d) if I drop out, it will be easier to get a job because employers are looking for people under 25 would be reasonable arguments to make. Option d) is not a reasonable argument because dropping out of college does not guarantee an easier time finding a job, as employers typically value a college degree and relevant skills and experience.
