undergraduate and graduate

dodiplomski=undergraduate studies [ a big NO-NO for "pre-graduate", the word does not exist!)

The reference you provided about 'pre-graduate" is pre-graduate school ADVISING during undergraduate studies (the danger of googling!!). That is something else. It's about advice on graduate school programs given to undergraduates.
Trust me, I've been to both undergraduate and gradate school in the USA. I don't need a dictionary for that :)

hvala! (btw. i actually found the term pre-graduate in certain pages, however not having the same meaning as the term undergraduate; cf. http://college.usc.edu/pre-graduate-school/)
o, i didn't mention it because i was confused about the usage of the term, but simply because you categorically claimed it's nonexistance :)

Thanks. Ana
agree bonafide1313 : i only don't think that google is that dagerous on its own merits; whether you google the word or find it in a 19th century encyclopedia, you have to read the sentence very carefully...
