近年来，政策制定者开始强调所有学生高中毕业并做好就业准备的目标（全国州长协会最佳实践中心、全国州立法机构会议、全国州教育委员会协会和州首席学校官员理事会，2008年）。研究支持这样一种观点，即大学准备和职业准备越来越趋于一致——为大多数高薪职业做准备所需的技能与大学准备所需的技能相似（ACT, 2006）。然而，来自大学准备测试分数的证据表明，大多数完成高中学业的学生并没有准备好大学毕业对于非裔美国人和西班牙裔学生来说尤其如此（ACT, 2008）
In recent years, policymakers have begun to emphasize the goal that all students graduate from high school collegeand career-ready (National Governors Association Center for Best Practices, National Conference of State Legislatures, National Association of State Boards of Education, & Council of Chief State School Officers, 2008). Research has supported the idea that college-readiness and career-readiness are increasingly the same goal—the skills required to prepare for most well-paying careers are similar to those required for college readiness (ACT, 2006). Yet, evidence from collegereadiness test scores indicates that the majority of students who finish high school do not graduate college ready.2 This is especially true for African American and Hispanic students (ACT, 2008).3
