Description

Definition
YRSCHL indicates the highest grade/level of schooling the person had completed, in years. Only formal schooling is counted. YRSCHL accounts for the number of years of study, regardless of the track or kind of study. Information on degree and/or technical track is available in EDATTAN. Years of schooling for Israel, categorized into intervals, are given in YRSCHL2.

Users should pay close attention to the top-codes in each sample, as discussed in the comparability section.
