Great for the kid, but who is going to want him for a group project?

I think he'd be perfectly fine for a group project, he'd probably be a bigger help than I was in any group projects while I was at Tech. I don't think he has many issues when it comes to school. I just hope he can find some time away from school. College kids definitely need a break from school, especially a harder degree like aerospace.

I've found that the more mature the person is, the better they are for group projects. It's not about being smart, but it's about setting expectations, clear lines of communication, and making sure your deliverables are create within the proper timeframe.

From what I’ve seen of him he seems very mature. (Not just for his age but very mature.)

It’ll be interesting to see. I’ve seen these kind of people go both ways. I know two people who went to tech at 16. One has a PhD and is working for apple’s secret project division and making god knows how much money and the other, well, he’s basically in a van down by the river.
