He is possibly the youngest graduate in the college’s 60-year history.At the age of 10, he graduated from high school  and has been taking classes at ARC since he was 7 years old. Because he found regular school boring, Tanishq was home-schooled by his mother Taji, a veterinarian who reportedly took a break from her own PhD studies to teach him.

Gushing at the graduation, his proud mum Taji Abraham said, "We did it as a family, as teamwork. And I was just cheering, I was just crying there when I saw Tanishq walk down the stage.”

Higher intellect apparently runs in the family. His father, Bijou Abraham, had a perfect math score on his SAT. He is a Cornell University graduate and software engineer.

Tanishq’s younger sister Tiara, 9, is also a prodigy; both children joined high school, Mensa International at the age of four.

“Even in kindergarten,” Taji Abraham said, Tanishq “was a few years ahead. It just went from there.”

Tanishq’s summer plans include taking an eight-week Calculus II course, and a family vacation. His long-term goals include attending Stanford University, becoming a doctor, winning a Nobel Prize in medicine, and becoming President of the United States.
