My further conquest towards the university path has been delayed by the school's decision to retain their authority over me for an extra year, due to my missing of 6 classes because of sickness, and my insitence that I will take 3 classes instead of 4 per semester, since my "painkillers" make me very sleepy, and hence the amount of time I have per day to complete homework fully conscious has been minimized.

In america "undergraduate" comes after secondary school (usually ages 17-23). It is called university in other anglo-saxon countries. "Graduate" is what is called post graduate in many countries, it is pursuit of masters/doctoral degree.

Graduate of two rehabs, one correctional facility, two mental wards, some college, and school of hard knocks.
Although technically, I haven't found that schooling has much to do with a persons actual level of education.

Alas! I am in dire need of constant education; the more I learn, the more I realize how much more there is to learn.

Sometimes I feel like I did after second or third grade: "What, eight or nine more years of this shit?"

I am a college dropout (I hated the major), so I would quality under the High School category.

I hate my job, but there isn't anything else out there. Besides, I am too dependent on a full time job to go back to college. Well, that and going back to college could put me far in debt and I could just end up working another shitty job after I got done anyway.

What's GED?

It's a high school equivalency type of thing for those who did not complete high school.

The poll could include people who dropped out and started apprenticeships.

I'm a sophomore in high school (10th grade).

I have a friend who never went to high school, dropped out after 8th grade, and still got his GED, just to prove how useless the public education system in the US is...
Though I spent 4 years more than him in school... he still knows just as much as me.

should some say graduate or undergraduate if they already have a degree? becasue i think here graduate means people people who are still studying.

I'm self educated. Which in plain English actually means I dropped out because I clearly never took any interest in school teachings and found it much more useful to figure things out as they cross my path.
