This study looks at differences in high school curricula and relates high school training to occupations and labor market success. The authors examine whether the returns to vocational training acquired in high school are contingent on whether students obtain an occupation corresponding to their specialty area and examine race and sex differences in both high school training and labor market opportunities.
