For example, if he/she is attending second year of the university, write 1.<br /><br />If the educational system in the university is a semester system, two semesters correspond to one year. On the other hand, for persons who passed or are studying in a literacy center, one year is the equivalent of two years of elementary school.<br /><br />For example:<br /><br />The person finished the third level of a literacy center, you should mark box 6.<br /><br />For persons who are attending the first year of any level, mark box "0".<br /><br /><div class="i1">What is the highest grade, course or year that you have passed in this level?
