16-year-old Graduates US University With High Honors — And Already Aiming For His Master’s, Becomes A Computer Scientist

A 16-year- old Raja Krishnaswamy has achieved an outstanding feat as he graduates from the University of Pittsburgh in the United States with a Computer Science degree.

 

He is a Monroeville teen who has always been exceptional since a very young age. According to his mother, Raja Krishnaswamy started reading the Alphabet at just 8 months old, started reading Harry Potter books at 3, and learned algebra at the age of 4.

Raja was homeschooled since he began kindergarten but got bored within the first five months. He begged his parents to let him take college courses that would challenge him even beyond his online middle school classes.
