Hi
I am using Eviews 12.
I need some help in running this binary regression of formac c female age prim sec ter using binary estimation. I have attached the data file below.
Thank you.

Dependent Variable: FORMAC
Method: ML - Binary Logit (Newton-Raphson / Marquardt steps)
Date: 05/17/22 Time: 18:28
Sample: 1 1004
Included observations: 919
Failure to improve likelihood (singular hessian) after 6 iterations
Coefficient covariance computed using observed Hessian
WARNING: Singular covariance - coefficients are not unique

Non-normality and collinearity are NOT problems!
