Notes
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.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
The variable indicating the number of years of education successfully completed (Q209) is only provided for those who were enrolled at the time of the survey or ever enrolled (Q208=1 or 2).
The number of years of education was replaced by "0" for those who never attended school (Q208=3).
For 509 individuals who are illiterate but previously attended school, a number of years of education ranging between 1 and 5 is reported.
