To get a phD at 25 is nothing special, lots of phD programs allow direct entry after undergrad if you qualify (at least here in Canada). Normally ppl graduate from undergrad at 21, then take this phD and graduate at 26. So if your birthday is later in the year or if you entered university a year earlier, you'll be able to get a phD at 25. So it's a bit much to call this guy a genius over this. LoL~ |
