Seventeen years old Waleed Khan, welcoming from Swat has accomplished a huge feat of acquiring the perfect score in his Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT).  The brilliant Pakistani student has broken the 150 year old record by obtaining the 2400 marks in the SAT test.

The student at California Modesto High School, Waleed Khan is the proud son of a well-known Californian cardiologist, Dr. Gohar Raza who graduated from the Aga Khan University located in Karachi. Mother of Waleed Khan is an internal medicine physician. The young champion also hopes to become a doctor just like his father. This Swat family shifted to California (USA) in year 1996.
