He was a bad student. He was also gifted at the same time. Being a bad student doesn't mean you don't get good grades it means you don't follow academia rules, but yourself and it's clear Einstein did what he felt like and not what his school prescribed for him which is the absolute nightmare of modern academia. He wasn't perfect probably because he thought his assignments were stupid, so he didn't bother to do them and that's indeed an awful student. Just because Einstein is gifted and got good grades doesn't mean he was a good or average student it means he performed well at that which he was gifted at and cared about; he may of been an exceptional student of physics, but he was no good student in the general sense of the word.
@sdwone 4 жыл бұрын
One cannot reduce a student to a set of grades. Einstien wasn't an exceptional student... But yet he was clearly a Genius! He also taught himself the necessary mathematics to forge his theories on Relativity *after* leaving University. I.e. Einstien flourish when he left mainstream academia... When he was free to educate himself and pursue his interests. So forget grades! What it all boils down to at the end of the day, is Discipline, Hardwork and the willingness to pursue your Dreams... At *any* cost! Being a Genius helps too of course, but I believe that the more you push brain, the stronger and more efficient it becomes! And sure, some have to push harder than others, but anyone can achieve Great Things if they put their minds to it.... And that is precisely why Einstein is, and shall always be, a Hero and an Inspiration to me!

Probableyproud??? The whole point of this vid is to show people that he got good grades, especially in the maths and physics. Contrary to general perceptions throughout his life. When Einstein became famous in his early twenties, these beliefs were so universal that in frustration one of his elementary teachers hauled out report cards and showed people there beliefs were not true.

@tibees One possible explanation, why one often hears, that Einstein was bad at school ist the difference between the marks in Switzerland and Germany. In Switzerland, the Marks translate like this: 1: Very bad, 2: bad, 3: insufficient, 4: sufficient, 5: good, 6: very good. In Germany, the Marks translate like this: 1: Very good, 2: good, 3: satisfying, 4: sufficient, 5: inadequate 6: insufficient.

Some background information on why some people would think that Einstein was a bad student: In today's Germany, 6 is the worst grade you can get while 1 is the best. That is reversed in Switzerland. When people look at Einstein's grades today and don't know that, they naturally would assume that he was really bad. Also, greetings from Ulm, Germany, the birthplace of Albert Einstein. :)

that's misleading - because only grades 4-6 are pass grades in Switzerland, so he was actually quite bad in the first year of university, and failed in school French - but that isn't a subject you are required to pass in order to get promoted to the next years or finish high school.

What amazes me is not that the first biographer assumed the notes being based on the German school system where 1 is the best note and 5 or later 6 the worst. What amazes me is that he didn’t immediately realize his assumption had to be wrong because with so terrible notes Einstein wouldn’t have been able to go to the next class let alone university.

(I haven't watched the video yet so I'm sorry if it is in it) Einstein having bad grades started because a german researcher looked at Einstein's grades in Switzerland and assumed they have the same grading system as germany (where 1 is the best grade and 6 the worst) but in Switzerland 1 is the worst and 6 the best.
