> Gymnasium" (grammar school) to attend university
first: there are different types of Gymnasium. I started not at a Gymnasium and then switched to a technical gymnasium.
Second: there are many other ways and an entire education industry devoted to get one to a University or similar. The 'Zweiter Bildungsweg'.

- DasIch 11y agoSpecialized Gymnasien aren't all that common and while you don't need to go through a Gymnasium to study at a university, it's by far the easiest way.
- lorenzhs 11y agoI'm fully aware, but allgemeinbildendes Gymnasium and technisches Gymnasium account for nearly everyone at university in my state. There are a bunch of different ways of getting into uni, which also kinda vary by state, but that's not all that relevant here.
