Can someone help me please Read this excerpt from the passage.

As Warren states, more women today go to college than men. In college, women have the opportunity to study whatever discipline they choose, including fields that lead to high-paying jobs. Instead of complaining about income discrimination, women should focus on maximizing their ability to merit greater salaries.

What makes the reasoning in this excerpt fallacious?

The excerpt is based on the incorrect assumption that more women today go to college than men.

The excerpt attacks Senator Warren personally by implying that she included false statements in her speech.

The excerpt oversimplifies the issue by implying that women's choices in college have a direct impact on their earning potential.

The excerpt uses false logic to evade the issue that women earn less than their male counterparts within a particular field.
