2. These averages are from Education at a Glance 2012: OECD Indicators, Table A2.5, Successful completion of upper secondary programmes, by gender and programmes orientation, which presents the most recent available data for the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development's member countries for which data were available or could be estimated. Seventeen countries reported for this indicator; the OECD reports a "countries average" not the typical "OECD average". Please see the OECD Web site.
Notes: The proxy cohort rate is calculated by Statistics Canada using 2006/2007 Grade 10 ("Secondaire 3" in Quebec) enrolments and 16- to 19-year-olds (15- to 18-year-olds in Quebec) graduates data in 2008/2009. The methodology used to produce numbers for Canada and the provinces/territories may differ from that used in a particular province/territory; as a result, the numbers in this table may differ from those published by the provinces/territories.
