Description

YRSCHLCG reports the highest class or year of education the female respondent completed at the highest level of schooling achieved, as reported in EDUCLVLCG, according to the education system recognized in Republic of the Congo - Brazzaville.

Comparability

YRSCHLCG has no comparability problems.

Because YRSCHLCG reports the number of years of schooling at the highest level achieved, "4 years" does not mean 4 years total, but 4 years at whichever level of education the respondent achieved. Thus, a code of 4 could indicate 4 years of primary school, a high school degree, or a bachelor's degree, for example. Users should consult the Survey Text tab for exact question wording and surrounding questions.

Comparability - Standard DHS

A question about the highest year of education the respondent has completed is included in every phase of the standard DHS questionnaire. YRSCHLCG is a country-specific variable.
