I would say one doesn’t need a graduate degree to understand the material posted in this blog. One might need an undergraduate degree though.

How the person writes the information makes a huge difference. Personally, I don’t like reading blogs that use big words when simple words could be used.

Ah Hsien,
The Curse of knowledge…..I am happy that I ended up at high school. But I wonder how they assign this rating.

According to Postgenomic, I’m only Grade 8 on the Flesch-Kincaid scale so I don’t know where this widget is pulling that rating from….

NA, If I knew any big words, I’d use them. :D

Apparently any kid just out of junior high can understand my blog. Is that a compliment or an insult?
