10. Grades completed
With this question you want to know if the person who is interviewed approved or passed any grade or year of studies, and if he/she did, how many grades or years he/she approved or passed at the various levels of education.
It is important that you are clear that this is about years completed or passed. The years that were failed (repeated), the years that are in progress, or the incomplete years do not count.
If the person approved or passed any grade or year of studies, read to the informant all of the educational levels that are in the question.
