Child Prodigy Spotlight: Suborno Isaac Bari – The 12-Year-Old Genius Breaking Boundaries
At just 12 years old, Suborno Isaac Bari has achieved what many can only dream of in a lifetime. The young prodigy, often dubbed the “Einstein of Our Time,” recently made history as the youngest graduate of Malverne High School in Long Island, New York. Now, he is set to attend New York University (NYU) on a full scholarship, where he will pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and Physics.
Suborno’s exceptional talents became evident at an incredibly young age. By age 2, he had already memorized the periodic table and demonstrated an advanced understanding of mathematical concepts. His parents, both educators, quickly recognized his abilities, and by age 4, he had received a letter of recognition from former U.S. President Barack Obama for his academic achievements.
His academic journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. Skipping multiple grade levels, Suborno went from 4th grade to 8th grade and then from 9th to 12th grade, completing high school in just two years. During his final year, he took college-level courses at prestigious institutions, including NYU, Stony Brook University, the City University of New York, and Brooklyn College.
Despite his young age, Suborno excelled in his high school studies, maintaining an impressive GPA of 98 and setting records with a 1500 SAT score at age 11. His remarkable intellect also led him to be a guest lecturer at Mumbai University in India at just 7 years old, where he taught advanced physics concepts to college students.
In the fall of 2024, Suborno officially began his journey at NYU, possibly as the youngest student ever admitted to the university. His ambition does not stop there, he hopes to graduate college by age 14 in 2026 and immediately pursue a Ph.D. in Mathematics.
His ultimate dream? To become a professor of mathematics and physics, helping students around the world, especially those with limited access to quality education to understand the wonders of science.
Suborno’s brilliance is matched by his passion for sharing knowledge and inspiring others. He has authored two books, received recognition from Harvard University for his problem-solving skills, and continues to lecture globally.
