NOTE: See supplemental note to Indicator 10 for a detailed explanation of the contrast between Census- and Current Population Survey-derived estimates of secondary education enrollment rates and a note on the calculation of full-time equivalent enrollments. Figures are estimated by using the April, 1990 U.S. Census totals for secondary enrollment and allocating them to age levels according to the pattern found in the October, 1990 Current Population Survey. See technical note for a more detailed explanation.
