Thanks a lot! I had another question. I wanted to find out the number of students enrolled across different education levels per age. So to weight it, I am using the following command: svyset psu [pw=weight], strata(stratum) singleunit(scaled). To view my results I am using the following command: tab age school_level, count. I have used hv022 for stratum and hv021 for psu. I have divided the hv005 variable by 1000000 to arrive at the household weights.

However when the count is displayed I observed that "number of observations" is greater than "population size" - how is this possible? Because population size is supposed to be greater than sample observations, right? I am working with adolescents between 10-24 year olds, but I am using household weights.
