Question

question 8 of 10
vocational colleges often:

a. take longer to graduate from.

b. save students money, compared with a four-year college.

c. have few teachers.

d. require students to move far from home.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Vocational colleges typically have shorter programs (e.g., 2 years or less) compared to four - year colleges, so they don't take longer to graduate. Eliminate A.
• Option B: Vocational colleges often have lower tuition costs and shorter program durations (less time paying for tuition, living expenses etc.), so they can save students money compared to four - year colleges. This is a valid characteristic.
• Option C: There's no general rule that vocational colleges have few teachers. Teacher - student ratios can vary, and this is not a defining characteristic. Eliminate C.
• Option D: Vocational colleges may be local or have options for students to commute, and there's no requirement for students to move far from home. Many are accessible to local students. Eliminate D.

Answer:

B. save students money, compared with a four - year college.
