b) Their proposed graduate programs' requirements are different

c) State law controls the content of the curriculum

d) Their research on job opportunities in their respective areas yielded different results.

The track that the two students took are different

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

Grace and Brian both take up different specificity certification and so their tracks are different. In other words, the subject choices and the course they undertake are completely different though the RHIT certification is the same.

Grace and Brian would also be learning and practicing an altogether different curriculum which would be controlled by the state laws. The career options that they both will have will also be different and the job opportunities would also be different.
