The proportion of bachelor's degree holders in a generation

* * * This dataset contains the evolution of the proportion of bachelor's degree holders in a generation according to track and gender (from 2000). The bachelor's degree is a national diploma that certifies the completion of general, technological or vocational secondary education. Demographic data: the population by age is derived from estimates published by INSEE for France outside Mayotte. The population known in March of year N is used here. It allows the calculation of the provisional proportions of bachelors in a generation for the two most recent sessions, and final for the previous sessions. This dataset brings together all baccalaureate candidates from the June and September sessions. The observation date is set to June 30 of each year even if the date of the tests varies from year to year.
