For both women and men in the eligible age category for being interviewed, the education questions are the same as the education questions in the household questionnaire. Question 105 for women and question 107 for men asks ""Have you ever attended school?" If yes, Question 106 for women and Question 108 for men asks "What is the highest grade you completed?" There are no questions on the level of education attended or completed. The only relevant information is on the highest grade completed. The grade had to be completed to be counted. Again, the questions refer only to formal schools, not religious schools or other types of schools.
