Mexican 13-Year-Old Dafne Almazán Is The 'Youngest Licensed Psychologist'
Dafne Almazán is just 13, but already a Mexican graduate from the Monterrey Institute of Technology (ITESM). Last August, she became the "youngest licensed psychologist in the world".
This was an accomplishment that was another feather in the cap of this accomplished teenager. She graduated from middle school at 7 years and finished high school at 9, according to Hello Giggles.
Some call her Mexico's "most powerful woman", but Dafne is perhaps also this country's most famous child prodigy. Still, she does not stop with these achievements, but goes on to study, playing the piano and even teaching others Mandarin!
Recently, she came back from Denmark to present her simulated satellite project.
How on earth does she manage so many things? She "candidly states that it's not really all about pushing herself to the limit", reported Global Post.
"It's not actually that hard, to be honest. It's not like getting up really early every day and staying up really late. I just try to organize my time as best as I can so I can do all the things I like," she said.
Of course there are many more gifted children where she comes from, but not everyone gets so much support. Recently, studies have concluded that there are actually about "1 million underage geniuses in Mexico", but just four percent get the chance to use their gifts till they reach adulthood, says HNGN.
