Wow, do I feel dumb.

Brazilian boy, 8, passes law school entrance exam | World news | The Guardian:
"Brazil's lawyers have been shocked to find that a boy aged eight has managed to pass the entrance exam to law school.

...Joao Victor is still in fifth grade, two levels ahead of normal for his age, but his mother says he is not a cloistered genius. "He is a regular boy," she told the Folha de Sao Paulo newspaper. "He is very dedicated, likes to read and study, but he has fun and makes friends."

..."My dream is to be a federal judge," the boy said, according to Globo TV's Web site. "So I decided to take the test to see how I would do ... it was easy. I studied a week before the test.""
