1. Albert Einstein is considered one of the most intelligent people in history. However, as a child, he struggled in some subjects in school but performed well in Mathematics and Science.

2. Despite playing truant and cramming for examinations, he still managed to succeed in school. Einstein found traditional schooling to be dull and unstimulating.

3. However, he was impressed by people's drive to learn despite these factors. When he entered his teenaged years, he demonstrated skepticism towards authority figures and questioned established mathematical and scientific principles.

4. He then went on to write his first scientific paper at 16. At 26, he earned his advanced academic degree and published four ground-breaking articles in Physics that challenged what man understood about the concepts of time and gravity.

5. This ultimately led to his own ground-breaking discoveries. These discoveries would establish him as one of the most famous scientists in history.
