Gross enrollment rate of higher education in China:
The gross enrollment rate of higher education in China is 23%.
The enrollment rate can be divided into "gross enrollment rate" and "net enrollment rate": "gross enrollment rate" does not mean rough calculation, but means that the age of students is not considered when calculating the number of students in molecular higher education in the formula; "Net enrollment rate" means that when calculating the number of students in molecular higher education, the age of students should be considered, that is, only the number of students in the same age group as the denominator (18-22 years old) is included, and students younger than 18 or older than 22 years old are not included.
Both the present and the past higher education can be described by "net enrollment rate" and "gross enrollment rate". However, because the age distribution of future students cannot be accurately known, we can only use the "gross enrollment rate of higher education" to determine the development goal of future higher education.
