    Education! How much do you have?!

    In addition to voting in the poll, feel free to provide your

    • age
      [*]years of education
      [*]other certifications or specializations

    in a separate post so we can control for age and show off our expertise!

    EDIT- Lol, originally intended "16 years" to be a university degree and "17-18 years" to be a Master's Degree, but I think you guys are counting Kindergarten or something. My major? Well I'm going to be a year-counting expert. I have a lot of work to do...

    Well we begin in school here in Sweden at the age of 7.. (If you don't count kindergarden or whatever it is called),
    20 - 7 = 13 years.

    So 13 years then. Currently studying at an University, 2nd year.

    7 in Primary school, 7 in Grammar school. Finished that, went on to my specific job qualifications, but I didn't really count those as "education", given I was working whilst attaining them. I'm 19.

    How about 4 extra years spent in school not learning swedish? I can't even get my diploma anyways since I couldn't be arsed. That whole system is so fucked up anyways. I should have just changed my native language to swedish in the magistrate, that way they would have forced me to learn finnish which is a bit easier.
    Bah, I was the best swimmer in my platoon. there were only 2 other people swimming, everyone else was sick.
