8yo boy gains Math's A level

[Hulababy]

Sat the exam aged 8, achieving 90% and a grade A.

His older brother, 11y, gained 96% in Further Maths.

Pretty impressive! Hpope it is true they still get lots pf play time too though.

Told you they were dumbing down exams

KIDDING!! PLEASE DO NOT FLAME!!!!!

Tis Comic Relief and we're having a fun day at work so I'm in a silly mood

Wonder if they went to Kumon?

Wonder if he's educated at home...

Callisto - says he and his borther attend primary school.

I think Maths is one of those subjects that some rare children just "get" intuitively, and enjoy. I certainly wasn't one of them, but can understand why you'd get a kick out of it and want to do it if it came naturally - it's very satisfying!

I was just kidding. They go to a state primary in Hants. And the BBC article says that the parents were very involved whilst still making sure they had free time too.

I'm sure it's down to a lot of hard work. We should go tell Xenia about the benefits of state school.

I doubt if they learned all that in school
