I think HS is often referred to as secondary school.  Confusing enough, it's 
also called "college" in parts of Europe.  I'm asking my Romanian roommate 
these questions :P   What Americans call "college" Europeans call 
"university."  Could say did not finish secondary, secondary, post-secondary, 
vocational.  

I also sent a mail to the list with post-secondary broken into 
undergrad/graduate, but I don't know how those translate.
