Of course this is not strictly true, since when Aleksandrov was two years old St Petersburg changed its name to Petrograd. Aleksandrov attended school in Petrograd but while he was at school the name of the city in which he lived changed yet again and so by the time he left school in 1928 it was a Leningrad school from which he graduated.
Ng mga kurso na ito ay hindi mahigpit na totoo, dahil kapag Aleksandrov ay dalawang years old St Petersburg ay binago ang pangalan nito sa Petrograd. Aleksandrov pumasok sa paaralan sa Petrograd ngunit habang siya ay nasa paaralan ang pangalan ng lungsod na kung saan siya nakatira ay nagbago pa muli at kaya ng oras siya kaliwa paaralan sa 1928, ito ay isang Leningrad mula sa paaralan na kung saan siya ay nagtapos.
