With some other inventing or tool making in-between... Or was it the other way around? Did he go to University?

If he's a genius it wouldn't take him that long to get a PHD.

IF He is a genius? He Dr Pete Peterson says so, only! I'd still like to know his time-line and where his credentials are from?

However that's not generally the case regarding a Phd being gained early or faster. I was just trying to find a time-line for him, so I'm only presuming he has a genuine Bsc and PHd.You can finish a Phd in 12 Months but it will not usually be awarded before the general period of completion of the institutes time period is finished, 3-6 years in general. Completing a PHd early is not necessarily a sign of genius or anybody special, its just a sign that you have completed your thesis and its been accepted.

Most of the major universities no matter if you are a genius or have two heads will not give you their degree or Phd until after the completion time which is usually 3 to 6 years depending on the institute.



The general consensus is when I was studying it was 10 to 12 years from finishing high school to a PHd, for the average genius which they usually are in science disciplines.A tad earlier perhaps for for UK Australian and NZ and possibly Canadian students because their high school leaving qualifications are of a higher calibre as against the US and other countries, who have a longer Bachelors degree period in university usually by 1 more year.

A British and Dominions 2nd or 3rd class bachelors degree is the equivalent of a US masters degree.Hence the reason a Masters is more popular in the US after directly gaining a Bachelors.

Genius IQ only means one has passed certain designated parameters for an IQ institute who all disagree on where they start! Ironically, Mensa for example.

Genius is a subjective term anyway especially when it is just memorisation because genius without imagination or creativity is not that valuable.

Now this all goes out the window with these bought diplomas off the net, etc! They are worthless they are not affiliated or accredited diplomas, and can be gained faster than the SPEEDY postal service for a fee. Most of these quacks selling snake oil on the net have these and when the public see's Dr before their name they think of an (MD)=Medical Doctor, but they are nothing of the sort!

Oh and if you ever hear some quack say well he gained his diploma like in 6 months or super early because of his genius and is selling snake oil via fear and conspiracies somewhere, you can bet your bottom dollar he's a bold faced FRAUD and LIAR.
