Definition

Gross enrollment ratio is the ratio of total enrollment, regardless of age, to the population of the age group that officially corresponds to the level of education shown. Secondary education completes the provision of basic education that began at the primary level, and aims at laying the foundations for lifelong learning and human development, by offering more subject- or skill-oriented instruction using more specialized teachers.

What the series shows

The series runs from 1976 to 2022 (13 years of data). It moved from 36.9 to 93.4 %, a change of 153.2%. The highest value was 94.7 in 2019 and the lowest 35.1 in 1990. The comparison below sets Vietnam against 9 neighbouring economies on the latest available year.

Using it in a thesis

Indicators like this one are typical control or explanatory variables in macro and finance theses: merge the CSV with your other series on the year column, check for missing years before running a regression, and log-transform level variables that grow over time. If you use the series in a panel with other countries, take every country from the same source and vintage so the definitions match. Cite the original publisher, not this site, as shown below.
