AP Language Fallacies Appeal to Logos (Reason): Hasty Generalization ?Neither the valedictorian not the salutatorian smoke cigarettes. Students who make good grades don?t smoke.? False Analogy ?Students should be able to use reference works during tests; when they?re adults on their jobs, they?ll be free to consult any source that may prove helpful.? Non Sequitur (random) ?Joe will make a good baseball player because he is an avid reader.? Post Hoc Just because one thing happened, doesn?t mean it has anything to do with something else ?Giving the star baseball player a huge raise put the team in a slump; the team wasn?t in a slump before the raise was announced.? Slippery Slope If you do ?x?, ?y? will automatically occur (however small will lead to an extreme) Red Herring
