How educated are our current government leaders? I was curious about the educational level and schooling for world leaders of top economies. It was suprising to find out that some world leaders did not finish their degrees, a few have degrees that are publicly disputed, and others chose non-degree vocational, religious, or military training. Overall, the most popular degree for a world leader is law, economics or political science. However, the level of education does not necessarily correlate with the wealth of the country's economy.
