Quazi is a very talented person with nearly superhuman intelligence, according to the Daily Mail. At age two, Quazi started using complete sentences, and by the time he was six, he could solve complicated mathematical problems with ease.
He said that his classmates found it difficult to keep up with his rapid rate of learning, which made his school years difficult. He mentioned feeling physically and emotionally dissatisfied sitting through courses since it did not correspond to his academic needs.
“It was physically painful for me to sit through classrooms trapped, existentially bored, for hours and months — and eventually years — on end, and not learning at the level that I physically, intellectually and emotionally needed,” he said.
Despite his achievements at a young age, Quazi reassured skeptics that his childhood was not compromised at any point.
“For the people out there that I think are concerned that my childhood is being destroyed, I’m really here to tell you that that’s just not true,” he said.
