Comparability

The source data for many surveys report total years of schooling and some report levels. Where possible, EDGRADE converts the original composite codes of surveys that report both level and grade within a level in the coding scheme. Surveys that report the only number of years of total schooling or total number of years that cross multiple levels are indicated below. Notably, MICS4, 5, and 6 do not ask grades for early childhood education or preschool education.
