I'll be a doctor at 18, says 12-year-old child prodigy

Tanishq Abraham insists he is just an ordinary boy who likes learning and microscopes - and also playing video games.

A 12-year-old boy who already has three community college degrees and has been accepted at two University of California campuses is planning to study biomedical engineering and become a doctor and medical researcher by the time he is 18.

Tanishq Abraham has been accepted to UC Davis and received a regents scholarship to UC Santa Cruz, but he has yet to make up his mind which university he will attend.
