Teens who are Overweight

This indicator shows the percentage of high school students who are overweight (i.e., >= 85th percentile but < 95th percentile for body mass index, by age and sex, based on reference data). The BMI is calculated by taking a person's weight and dividing it by their height squared in metric units. (BMI = Weight (Kg)/[Height (m) ^ 2] )
