Popular Misconceptions

Albert Einstein didn't fail maths in school

Upon seeing a column making this claim, he said

"I never failed in mathematics.. Before I was 15 I had mastered differential & integral calculus"

He did fail the entrance exam into the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School on his 1st attempt (1895)

He was 2 years younger than his fellow students at the time & scored exceedingly well in the maths & science
