18 year old finishes UVA in one year

So here I am sitting at the House Undergraduate Library complaining about having two assignments due tomorrow and having to write one kick butt cover letter for the world’s biggest software company. Meanwhile an 18 year old is starting grad school at UVA after having graduated from there in one year with a double major in math and physics.

 

“His college education, almost entirely covered by a patchwork of scholarships, cost him about $200. And he sold back textbooks for more than that. Now he's starting graduate study at U-Va. with a research grant.

 

So at this point, he's technically running a profit.”  

I am going to go look him up on Facebook.
