Question

With regard to academics, which person is not considered a doctor?
A) physician
B) physical therapist
C) personal trainer
D) lead medical researcher

Answer 1

C is the correct answer. "Academics" refers to training/education in a college or institute of higher education. No particular special training is absolutely required for a personal trainer, but an academic degree is required for the other professions, and advanced training is needed to even understand the issues and procedures of those professions.

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. A person trainer is not considered to be a doctor. Rather than the formal school training required by physicians, physical therapists, and medical researchers, the training and certification process for a personal trainer is much less intensive. In fact, one can become a certified personal trainer entirely online.
