Correct Answer: he will most certainly have completed
Solution : The error lies in the fourth option.
In the third conditional structure (if + past perfect), the corresponding result clause should use would followed by the present perfect tense. So it should be "he would most certainly have completed" instead of "he will most certainly have completed".
Therefore, the correct sentence should be "If he had not dropped out, he would most certainly have completed his education by 2023".
