Around 1886 Albert Einstein began his school career in Munich. As well as his violin lessons, which he had from age six to age thirteen, he also had religious education at home where he was taught Judaism. Two years later he entered the Luitpold Gymnasium and after this his religious education was given at school. He studied mathematics, in particular the calculus, beginning around 1891.
In 1894 Einstein's family moved to Milan but Einstein remained in Munich. In 1895 Einstein failed an examination that would have allowed him to study for a diploma as an electrical engineer at the Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zurich. Einstein renounced German citizenship in 1896 and was to be stateless for a number of years. He did not even apply for Swiss citizenship until 1899, citizenship being granted in 1901.

About Me
- Wooran's Warriors
- I adopt ideas only if they are useful, which is to say if they work efficiently toward accomplishing the well-defined goals. I am never eager to take command of projects or groups, preferring to stay in the background until others demonstrate their inability to lead . I approach reality as a giant chess board, always seeking strategies that have a high payoff, and always devising contingency plans in case of error or adversity. Organizational structure and operational procedures are never arbitrary, never set in concrete, they are quite malleable and can be changed, improved, streamlined. No idea is too far-fetched to be entertained-if it is useful. I am always open to new concepts and, in fact, aggressively seeking them. I am also alert to the consequences of applying new ideas or positions. Theories which cannot be made to work are quickly discarded. On the other hand, I can be quite ruthless in implementing effective ideas, seldom counting personal cost in terms of time and energy.
