Default Education Level of DR1ers

A) Primary education (8th grade) or less

B) Secondary education (high school diploma)

C) An associate's degree

D) A bachelors degree

Smile Education = $$?

Maybe it would be more fair/interesting, to state your education along with your yearly income, since a better job is probably the main reason for one to seek higher education.
