    Those braces are mocking us. Yes, this young lady was called to the Bar of England and Wales at the tender age of 18. Gabrielle Turnquest did at 18 what the average lawyer achieves at 27-years-old. Turnquest is the youngest person in history to have passed the bar exam.

    Despite numerous offers in Britain Turnquest plans to qualify as a lawyer in America. She has also been called to the Bahamas Bar and hopes to work in the country one day.

    Tunrquest and her sister, Kandi attended the University of Law in England where they completed the Bar Professional Training Course. While Gabrielle passed the exam at 18 and is the youngest person to have done so, her sister passed the exam at the age of 22, which is also fairly mental.

    Turnquest said:

    I am honoured to be the youngest person to pass the Bar exams but, really, I was not aware at the time what the average age was.

    I didn’t fully realise the impact of it.

    At 16 Gabrielle was the youngest person to graduate with a bachelors degree in psychology from Liberty University in Virginia.

    Gabrielle plans to be a fashion law specialist.
