"A lot of people were pretty surprised."</p> Exline grew up in Colorado Springs, Colo., where at 8 years she was already in sixth grade. By 13 she had finished high school math. She turned 15 in February and graduated a few months later.</p> She's not preoccupied with how unique her accomplishments are.</p> "I wouldn't even really realize that if people didn't tell me," she said.</p> She excels at math and science and is really interested in politics, so she enrolled in a Penn program that will award her degrees from both the engineering and liberal arts schools when she graduates in 2011.</div></p> LINK</p> </p>
