Dear Liz,

thanks for your quick answer.

As there is no question about the actual number of years of schooling in the questionnaire, what puzzles me is that for a given level of hv106 (in the household questionnaire), there are several levels of hv108, even within Indian state.
Giben the question related to hv107 (number of years in the level of education mentionned in hv106), I am wondering where this information is coming from.

To make it clearer: the DHS2 questionnaire asks only what is the highest grade completed by a person (hv106). From this question, I understand that a number of years of education (hv108) can be completed (say 8 years if primary completion demands 8 years in that country), but what I don't understand is how it is possible to have hv107 (a number of years above a given level of education).
Or is there a question that I have missed in the questionnaire ?
Thanks for your help.
