Hypergifted / Gordon Korman.

Korman, Gordon, (author.).

Summary:

"School has never been a problem for twelve-year-old super-genius Noah Youkilis--at least not until he gets an admission letter to the prestigious Wilderton University. The last thing Noah wants is to go straight from eighth grade into college. Will his life ever just be normal?! Meanwhile, Noah's best friend Donovan has been looking forward all year to a summer of doing nothing. But when Wilderton allows Noah to bring a friend for the summer term, Donovan's parents jump at the chance. Suddenly, Donovan's summer of slack has turned into watching over Noah and working as a summer camp counselor for professor's kids. Once they arrive on campus, Noah's determined to fit in--and to him, that means joining the top-secret Society of the Gavel. But becoming a Gaveler is harder than it seems, and it's made all the harder when Noah and Donovon try to rescue Wilderton's mascot, a two-hundred-pound pig named Porquette, by smuggling her into their dorm. Now, Noah and Donovan must combine all their middle-school smarts to keep their pig-sized secret, fix a haywire AI program before it pretty much ends the world, and keep track of Donovan's campers." -- Provided by publisher.
