This difference meansthat Nuevo Leon is above the mandatory number of years of education that is required in Mexicofor each person to complete (nine years representing the completion of middle school). On theother hand, Chiapas is well below the number of years necessary. The average in both states isexpected to increase in the future. Beginning in May 2019, the number of mandatory years ofeducation in Mexico has risen to 12 years (completion of high school).That Chiapas students have better perceptions of physics than the Nuevo Leon students could berelated to the differences in wealth and education in these two states.
