Students placed into technical secondary are further tracked by exam performance: a small group of the best-performing students among those who did not qualify for general secondary enter advanced 5-year technical schools and the rest enter the more typical 3-year technical schools. The best among this latter group are placed into industrial schools, the next group into agricultural schools, and the weakest group into commercial schools (World Bank).

Fifty of the 101 PSUs from the original sample were randomly selected and then ranked from high to low according to the percentage of girls aged 10-14 enrolled in school. As a first step, alternate PSUs in the ranking were sampled to determine the range of districts according to enrollment. This initial set of 25 PSUs yielded 60 schools. Because the budget permitted a larger sample, an additional 12 PSUs were selected from those remaining after a similar ranking procedure to yield a final sample of 75 preparatory schools.

Home economics is taught only to girls, and agricultural/industrial studies is taught only to boys. The number of classes observed sometimes fell below the ideal if the teacher was absent, if there were scheduling problems, or if the home economics or agricultural/industrial studies class was scheduled at the end of the school week when the student interview took place, thus forcing the cancellation of one or the other of these classes.

The linked sample includes more girls than boys because we found a greater number of all-girls schools in the 12 additional PSUs selected (see n. 29 above for an explanation of how PSUs were selected).

Within the set of school quality variables selected for inclusion, the maximum correlation between any pair is 0.6, but relatively few pairs have correlations that high. As an example of conceptually similar variables, we retained a measure of whether or not a school had one shift or more than one shift and deleted other highly correlated measures of time to learn, such as the average length of the school day or school week. We also retained a measure of punishment by hitting rather than punishment in general because corporal punishment is illegal in Egypt.

We selected the regularity of home economics and agricultural classes as an indicator of school organization, as these classes, while required by the core curriculum, are likely to be taken less seriously in schools that suffer from poor organization.

Students scoring above 90 percent on the primary school-leaving exam appear to be able to choose the preparatory school they will attend. In the 1997 ASCE survey, we asked adolescents whose last school-leaving exam was for primary what they had scored on the exam. Only 5 percent of students were able to provide an answer. Therefore, we have no way of knowing from our data which students might have been allowed some choice of preparatory schools. In rural areas, however, there is rarely more than one preparatory school available for each sex. In urban areas, the few students who score above 90 have some choice of schools.

Education Demand and Age at School Enrollment in Tanzania
-
It is typical in Egypt to include a more elaborate series of dummy variables for residence, including urban governorates (Cairo and Alexandria), urban upper Egypt, urban lower Egypt, rural upper Egypt, and rural lower Egypt. In this analysis, the regression could not run when we included these variables because there were no students who dropped out in the urban governorate category. For age of entry into primary school, see Antoine Bommier and Sylvie Lambert, "Education Demand and Age at School Enrollment in Tanzania," Journal of Human Resources 35, no. 1 (2000): 177-203; Lloyd, Mensch, and Clark (n. 12 above).

Ragui Assaad suggested that we create separate indexes for urban and rural (e-mail message to Cynthia B. Lloyd, 2001). The 20 questions include, Does the household's dwelling have more than one room per two residents? Does it have a kitchen, piped water, a toilet, a radio, a TV, a washing machine, a refrigerator, a water heater, a telephone, an air conditioner, a video machine, a motorcycle, a truck, a personal car? Does any member of the household own, in whole or in part, agricultural land, buildings, vacant land, a factory/workshop, or other similar assets?

While the size of the coefficient on the shifts variable changes depending on which group of school-quality variables are included in the model, even when we drop the variables most highly correlated with urban residence-total class size and teacher's years of experience-the coefficient is large and significant (4.2 at the 1 percent significance level). Furthermore, if we distinguish statistically between morning and afternoon shifts, girls attending schools with morning shifts are more likely to drop out than those attending schools with afternoon shifts. Girls attending one-shift schools are the least likely to drop out. The reasons for this are not yet known.

The question to students was worded as follows: At this school during the preparatory stage, did any teacher ever insult your ability, telling you that you are a failure or won't succeed in school?
