An 8-year old child genius in Brazil not only passed the admissions exam to a Brazilian law school, but he also made it to the doorsteps of the law school on the first day of classes before being turned away. The Universidade Paulista turned the young boy back–perhaps because he brought his father with him (and wouldn’t you if you were starting law school at age eight?). The boy, Joao Victor Portellinha de Oliveira, dreams of being federal judge. For now the fifth grader’s dreams must be on hold…at least till he graduates from high school. Thanks to the Associated Press and Law.com for reporting this story.Â
