Good for him - let's hope he wins enough to pay for it.

Here's an article about Tony.

http://www.batesvilleheraldtribune.com/ ... 30325.html
Mitchell, 23, is a Brownsburg High School graduate, who recently graduated from Indiana University with a whopping four majors — physics, biochemistry, math, and Latin.

He is currently living with his parents and sharing a room with his younger brother while he applies to medical schools, which he hopes to begin attending in the fall to become a cardiologist.
Four majors?
Miller said Mitchell auditioned in Chicago during the summer of 2006.

“We can never really tell how many contestants we’ll go through,” she said. “Usually it’s around 300 per season, but sometimes it’s more and sometimes it’s less. If we don’t get to them one season, we’ll try to get to them in a future season.”

How can you have so many majors? Maybe some of the majors were minors.

I have heard of other people having four majors. They just had to malke time for taking enough courses in each major area of study.

I briefly thought about adding Physics as a third major (besides Econ and Poli Sci), since I already had some college Physics courses worth of credit. but it would have been too much of a course load, with athletics and other activities. (Just not that motivated, I guess.)

Wonder why he is only getting around to applying now? Usually you do that while still in school.

He does sound a bit over qualified though..
