Please double check the OA, is it C?

The claim that learning computer programming is a sure way to a bright future is analogous to the contention, popular a few years ago, that if one wanted a successful career, one should study law. Now, of course, there are more law students graduating than the market can absorb.

Let's analyze this passage:

The claim that learning computer programming is a sure way to a bright future is analogous to the contention, popular a few years ago
There is a belief that if one learn computer programing he or she has a bright future. And this situation is analogous/similar to another one, let's see what this situation is

that if one wanted a successful career, one should study law. Now, of course, there are more law students graduating than the market can absorb.
So analogous situation is 'studying law' if you want to be successful. The author consider 'learning computer programing' and 'studying law' means to successful career.

Now, of course, there are more law students graduating than the market can absorb.
But, currently there is much more law students that the jobs for them. So it wasn't such a good way for successful career to study law.

In sum:
The author by presenting two analogous situations wants to show that 'learning computer programming' could be NOT the best way to bright future, and that there is a possibility that the market could also be saturated with programmes as with lawyers

Question stem: The point of the analogy above is that
So we need to find out why the author presents this analogy and compare two of them, the reasoning behind the passage. Method of reasoning question. Sometimes 'method of reasoning' questions don't contain 'argument' there is no conclusion in the passage. So in our case we have to assume conclusion by ourselves once we understand the logical reasoning of the author

POE

(A) lawyers are making increasing use of computers in their work
the relationship between lawyers and computers (in the passage we have information only about 'learning computer programming' not the computers themselves) is not mentioned in the passage.

(B) computer programmers will increasingly need the services of lawyers
for those who didn't gasp the meaning correctly, this answer could be tempting as it presents information given in the passage 'computer programmers' and 'lawyers', but this is not the relationship that the author presents, this it out of scope.

(C) there will soon be more jobs for lawyers than there are now
we don't have any information about future job quantities for lawyers, out of scope.

(D) there will soon be more programming students graduating than there are jobs for them
this is exactly what the author wants to say in his/her analogy with lawyer.

(E) graduating law students and programming students will soon be competing with each other for the same jobs
also we don't have any supportive information about competition between CP students and law students in the passage, out of scope.

D is the answer.
