It is a problem but I think the system is pretty well optimized to allow to jump around.
If after three years you want to do the mid-level instead of the low one you can just add a year and do it.
If you do the mid-level you can go to something called "Kurzzeit Gymnasium" witch will take you four years but you end up with the same with the top-level kids.
Even if you do a educatonaly simple job with a start from the lowest level you can do a 'Berufsmatura' combined with working. This gives you almost the same thing as the normal top-level would give you. You can go to some university (there is no word for them in english but you get a beachlor all the same). With one extra year of school you can go to all of them.
In that respect im pretty happe with the system. Socialy it works out pretty good too, you arn't some kind of idiot if you go to the lowest level.
