Asher has been accepted to two good colleges. Both have a program that really interest him, and he can afford either. While they appear to be equal, he really likes college A better; when he was walking around the campus, it felt like home. College B was fine, but it just did not appeal in the same way. Should he let emotions guide his decision?

A. No, emotions can distort any type of decision making.

B. Yes, his emotions are telling him college A is a better fit.

C. No, he needs to think more about which college is more prestigious.

D. Yes, how he feels about the college is the only factor he should consider.

Answer:

B. Yes, his emotions are telling him college A is a better fit.

Step-by-step explanation:

When deciding on a college you should go with on that you will feel comfortable and happy to learn at. If college A "felt like home" he should go with that option.

A is incorrect, while emotions can distort decision-making, sometimes it is good to listen to your emotions.

For option c, going to a "prestigious" college is not always needed as not everyone may want to go to a larger college.

D is also not a good option. The paragraph we were given already says that they both interest him, both are equal, and both he can afford. This means that which he prefers emotionally is not the only factor being considered.

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly.

- Heather
