Read the excerpt from "On Becoming an Inventor" by Dean Kamen.

I didn't officially graduate from Worcester Polytechnic Institute until years later when I was awarded their honorary Ph. D. By then I'd created and patented many successful inventions.

What conclusion can be drawn from the details in this excerpt?

Although he did not graduate from college, Kamen became very successful in his field.

Kamen wishes he had not left college and instead graduated with all of his peers.

Obtaining a college degree from Worcester Polytechnic Institute is very difficult.

Kamen was delighted when he received an honorary Ph. D. from his old college.

    The correct option is: Although he did not graduate from college, Kamen became very succesful in his field.

    Dean Kamen was born in 1951 in New York. His most salient inventions were the iBot wheelchair and the Segway. He is also well-known for creating FIRST which means For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology. This program is aimed at fostering people to get involved in these areas.

    Kamen achieved many of these inventions being an undergraduate and he even received an award from U. S President Bill Clinton by 2000. Moreover, in 2005 he was included in the National Inventors Hall of Fame.
