Another response from Tom Pullum:
The MR file is for "men", not "males", and like the IR file has a minimum age of 15. (The maximum age varies for men, but is usually 49 or 54 or 59.) My previous answer was probably misleading--I guess I didn't understand that you were just interested in the ages for school attendance. If you do this merge you will get some men/boys at ages 15 to 17 or 18 ( or whatever age you could take as the top age for school attendance) but you will not get any below age 15. The same for women/girls; you won't find anyone below age 15 in the IR file.
