Imagine someone saying our great Albert Einstein is ineligible for a doctorate degree.
Well that's what a certificate driven society does.

The theory was really radical as of then.. It took 2014 abi 15 to discover it including high tech equipment...a genius is priceless.

Same thing happened to Thomas Edison...
But they never gave up or even cared about wealth.

I think thats one of the main reason they succeeded

That letter he wrote made him popular.

He was known as the professor that rejected Albert's proposal.

....And the rest became history. Sometimes, other people's evaluation of someone is not always the reality insofar as the person knows what he is pursuing and remains focused.

That is one characteristic of the academic environment. It is a regimented system that is not designed to really exploit innate expression but to encourage rote learning.

The Prof must have had his rational reasons but I guess hindsight won't forgive him now.

Edison was not truly educated. He was more of a trial and error person. Not exactly genius.

You don't have to be a genius or bookworm to make it, Just be self motivated. What is meant to be will be, our greatness in life should not be determined by a piece of paper called "Certificate".

If by trial and error you mean, doing, failing, then doing again with another method, then Edison was a genius. It takes only a genius to do "trial and error" and be successful with it. For someone that wasn't "truly educated", he has invented a lot of things.

Genius hits it head on. Trial and error hacks away.

Look at Tesla. He achieved a lot more than Edison did.

Trial and error doesn't need genius. It needs persistence and strength.

university of Bern... that should be in Switzerland ... yeah his quantum and photon theory. were quite unrealistic as at then.. probably due to the low availability of supporting assumptions from other scientists and the low availability of technology then....
Thank God for Einstein .. he really defined the most complex part of physics .. he even predicted gravitational waves which was discovered in January this year.. he was such a brilliant man.. no wonder that Prof removed his brain on pretext of conducting autopsy "
