Test: LSAT Logical Reasoning
Patient: The doctor who diagnosed my broken leg and recommended I wear a cast for six months has only seen three prior patients with broken legs. Dr. Green, an orthopedic surgeon, has evaluated thousands of patients who had broken legs. Even though a consultation with Dr. Green is more expensive, he will likely give a more accurate diagnosis of my leg than I got from the prior doctor.
| 4. | The reasoning in the patient's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument |
presumes, without further justification, that a doctor's experience in evaluating patients likely determines the accuracy of his or her diagnosis
fails to specify a source for the claim that the doctor who evaluated the patient's leg has only seen three prior patients with broken legs
fails to take into account the possibility that Dr. Green may not have been practicing for as long as the other doctor
falsely equates the terms consultation and diagnosis, when one does not necessarily lead to the other
treats a merely necessary condition as though it were a sufficient condition
