Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: Though Baby Boomers, Gen Xers, and Gen Yers might have legitimate reasons for pursuing a degree, their needs are minor compared to those of the Post-Millennials, who in 3 to 5 years would be beginning to reach the age where they had completed high school and were ready to go to college.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Explanation: Gen X is the only generation that is old enough to have worked in a professional field for a decade or more and now wants to return to school and receive additional training and expertise. Therefore, Marta should be focusing on this cohort that is in its forties and early fifties.
