I read Einstein when I was in my 20's just out of college with massive amounts of math education and natural ability (tied for 47 state wide in high school, within 99th percentile for the whole state, sim on SAT scores), and thought "what's the problem with understanding this?"
So I don't see a problem with getting started in GR and the basics. The problem is more where you go from there. And staying with it.
