1:37 - Transition from Unschooling to college: “My first day, I’m sitting there in my seat in class in terror.”
10:20 - Social Life as an Unschooled Kid (and in College): “I did have friends outside of college so if I wanted to hang out with somebody… I am going to hang out with my friends outside of college.”
13:51 - How did Xaq Develop an Interest in Science? “That course blew my mind. It just answered so many of the questions.”
18:03 - Learning the Torturous Subject of Math: “I skipped all of that, and I had to take one semester struggling with math and then I got back on track and I was fine.”
30:33 - From Unschooling to Science: “having learned by embracing your curiosity… perfectly suited me for this job.”
