[quote=Anonymous]My neice is a Gates Scholar, the Cambridge, Bill Gates version of the Rhodes. She, as others have mentioned, is incredibly self-driven and pushes her self harder than her PhD parents could ever do so, though it helps she has two very successful brothers (MD & JD) who are rather competitive. I actually wouldn't say she is naturally that 'smart' (honestly at times I think she's thick) but is by far the most driven person I've ever met. In talking with her professors at her graduation, many of whom made a point of coming to see her off, they all said she had great things ahead of her in her field of research (biotech) and they could easily see her on staff at their school or in a top lab.
