This paper re-estimates a model previously estimated by Griliches, Hall, and Hausman in order to determine the effects of introducing additional information. The model contains a wage equation, together with two equations that determine the observed level of schooling. Schooling appears endogenously in the wage equation. Furthermore, account is taken of the sample selection problem that arises because some members of the sample are still in school, so that their wage and desired schooling levels are not observed. The results correspond closely to those previously obtained by Griliches, Hall, and Hausman.
