GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
If the variable is not available in the original data, it can be generated using the highest level of education attained. However, the number of years of schooling required to complete different education levels is country specific.
If the level of education attained is also not provided, this variable will be missing.
Only the years of schooling successfully completed should be counted. Thus, those repeated should not be taken into consideration while generating this variable.
