| 1. I was finished with primary school ten years ago. 2. I finished with university education in my country. Are they grammatically correct? Do they both mean graduated from school? Thanks |

| 'I was finished with' suggests that the person gave up to me, that they decided to leave because they had had enough, not through completion. so I would say: 1. I finished primary school ten years ago. 2. I finished university education in my country. |
