COMMENTARY

4th January 2006 		The definition of "tertiary education" used in this statistic is clearly inconsistent. At age 19, German students are completing their postsecondary Gymnasium level which is comparable to college. The 8% figure must refer only to those 19 year olds who already attend university, which in fact is rare.
