By the age of 14, al-Zawahiri had joined the Muslim Brotherhood<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim_Brotherhood>. The following year the Egyptian government<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_government>executed Qutb for conspiracy <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conspiracy_%28political%29>, and al-Zawahiri, along with four other secondary school students, helped form an "underground cell devoted to overthrowing the government and establishing an Islamist state." It was at this early age that al-Zawahiri developed a mission in life, "to put Qutb's vision into action."[19]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayman_al-Zawahiri#cite_note-18>His cell eventually merged with others to form al-Jihad or Egyptian Islamic Jihad.[20]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayman_al-Zawahiri#cite_note-wrightp42-19>Al-Zawahiri graduated from Cairo University <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cairo_University> in 1974 with *gayyid giddan <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Academic_grading_in_Egypt>*. Following that he served three years as a surgeon in the Egyptian Army after which he established a clinic near his parents.[20]<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayman_al-Zawahiri#cite_note-wrightp42-19>In 1978, he also earned a master's degree in surgery.
