The 7 Year Old Indian Surgeon

!

From Wiki

According to his mother Raksha Kumari Jaswal, Akrit was an early starter, skipped the toddler stage and started walking. He started speaking in his 10th month and was reading Shakespeare at the age of 5[citation needed]. Akrit developed a passion for science and anatomy at an early age. Doctors at local hospitals took notice and started allowing him to observe surgeries when he was 6 years old. Inspired by what he saw, Akrit read everything he could on the topic. When he was 7 years old an impoverished family heard about his amazing abilities, they asked if he would operate on their daughter for free. Her surgery was a celebrated success. Someday, he hopes to continue his studies at Harvard University.2

He became India's youngest university student studying for a BSc in a Punjab University, Chandigarh, India. He is currently studying for a masters degree in applied chemistry. He possesses books such as Gray's Anatomy, and textbooks on surgery, anaesthesia, anatomy, physiology, cancer, and others. Akrit claims to have mastered them with his daily habit of studying for an hour.

He has an estimated IQ of 146 from a single test.3

That's awesome. I wouldn't see why Harvard wouldn't want someone of that caliber - of course, he'd probably need a decent scholarship.
