The expulsion happened as Albert didnt like learning dates and facts.
- The question has been asked from the story Albert Einstein at School
- He neither had a pleasant time in school for five years nor back at his lodgings.
- The school remained a place of hatred. When he received punishment, he had several unpleasant days, and feared going back but there was no alternative.
- The system was found uninspiring by Einstein, and the teachers were unfriendly which later led to his expulsion.
- Individual ambitions, creativity, and aptitude have no place in today's educational system. It hinders innovation and inventiveness. It emphasises facts and dates rather than thoughts.
- In the current situation, by cramming, most of the students manage to get through the exam, rather than learning things by heart and repeating them in the exams.
