Melchizedek Adio Baafawiise, who is just 13 years old, has gained a place at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) as one of the youngest undergraduates.
Melchizedek chose to pursue a bachelor's degree in Physics at KNUST since he had scored an exceptional A1 in five areas, including Physics and Mathematics, on the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE).
He finds mechanics fascinating, but he appreciates every aspect of the topic. However, he finds subjects like electricity and magnetism to be too abstract.
"I adore the physics and the computations. Experiments allow you to experience them. He said, "Even though you conduct experiments with electricity, you don't see the electrons moving."
Melchizedek Adio Baafawiise, who was raised in a household of four with a mother who taught primary school and a father who taught economics, first aspired to be a pilot. But he quickly came to understand the difficulties and constraints of going down that route.
He wanted to delve deeper into his hobbies before deciding whether to pursue his ambition of flying again, which is why he chose to study physics. "I will be able to find my true passion by studying physics." I'll choose between specializing in mechanical or aerospace engineering by my third or fourth year," he said.
After avoiding Forms 2 and 3, Melchizedek, a student at St. Cyprian's Minor Seminary, felt terrified at first. But he rapidly adjusted to his new surroundings and is now comfortable with his older university peers.
"I don't think there is much of a difference. It's totally typical," he said.
