Among the new class of undergraduates this year at Texas Christian University is 11-year old Carson Huey-You, admitted to study quantum physics at the college after scoring a 1770 on his SATs, CBS 11 News reports.

“I’m taking calculus, physics, history and religion. Those are my four classes,” Huey-You, who plays piano and speaks Mandarin Chinese, told CBS 11. While most of his peers will be playing with baseball cards or video games this school year, Huey-You will be studying to become a quantum physicist, the youngest student to ever be admitted to Texas Christian University, and despite his age, he'll be taking a full class load.

"It's fun because it's basically just like high school, but in a big campus...with a lot more people," he said of his college experience so far.

How did Huey-You get to be so bright so young?

His mother Claretta told CBS 11 that her son has always been focused, and could already read by the age of one. By the time he was five, Huey-You was already doing pre-algebra problems. The 11-year old says that he finds calculus to be relaxing.

"Whenever you are like 'Oh, that makes sense now,' just kind of after going at it, going at it, it's just kind of like that one moment of thought," he said to CBS 11.

He's not the only over-achiever in his family, though his parents say their childrens' intelligence is a blessing, as they've never pushed them to do so well. Huey-You's seven-year old brother Cannon is expected to graduate from high school at the age of 13.

Despite his shocking age, associate math professor Qiao Zhang says he is just like any another student. "He's definitely very talented and also he's very serious about his work and he really enjoys it. And that's the best that a professor can hope for his students, right?" Zhang said.

Even though he will likely get his college diploma before he's old enough to drive, Huey-You, who was co-valedictorian of his senior class, is otherwise just a normal, happy and humble kid, who enjoyed climbing on rocks in between his interview session with CBS.

Dean of Admission Ray Brown told the TCU 360 that he is pleased to have Huey-You as a student.

"[Carson] is at a place that will genuinely care about him as a person," Brown said.
