Totally 17 years. When I was six years old, my parents sent me to elementary school. I spent 6 years in the elementary school and then continued to junior high school for 3 years and senior high school for 3 years more. I spent almost 5 years in college. Wow! 17 years! I have never count it before. I have spent a half of my age in school. My age now almost 34 years.

well, my years in school is determined by the number of years that is parallel to my country's educational system. The whole package was 10 years so, 2 years for kinder and prep, 6 years for my grade school, 4 years of high school and 4 years of college. another 2 yrs for my on-going studies. basically that rakes up 17 years so far.

I was in preschool for 1 year. I took a year off then was in school for 13 years. I took another 2 years off. I went back for a year and a half. I took 3 years of online studies part-time while working. Now I am currently upgrading one class online.
I actually really like learning. I plan to go back to college in 4 years and then university and get a Masters or PHD in enviromental studies.

Oh boy, lets see, there was a year of preschool, a year of Kindergarten, eight years of grade school, four years of high school, three years of undergraduate school, and I've been in graduate school for a year. Wow, that is a long time. Eighteen years of school. I think that I am going to be nearly done, but there is going to be another year at least, at the very least.
That is just really interesting that people spend quite the sizable chunk of their life in school. If they go as much as me and for instance live to be a hundred, it is about a fifth of their life. That is absolutely insane all things considered. Then again, education never really does end. In many ways, all of those years of schooling, formal education is only just a fraction of our learning process.
