我感觉是因为前一个比较句中minority graduates are nearly four times 里面是没有宾语的，所以后一个比较句中不需要把谓语are补出来。白勇语法中好像讲过有宾语时必须补谓语，没有宾语不补。比如I eat apple as fast as you do

four times more likely than are other graduates in planning to practice


in planning to practice is not idiiomatic, in planning had better be to plan
since the phrase is "be likely to do"

几倍几倍之后一般不再加more than了，因为几倍就表示比。。。多，无需有than的比较了 用as。。。as即可

排除了比较之后的结构是be likely to plan on sth.而不是be likely in planing to do
