Due to an arrangement with his father when he was young, where Simon would receive a dedicated source box for access to the Cortex (similar to the Internet) in exchange for becoming a brilliant doctor, Simon eventually entered medical school c. 2507. In fact, due to Simon being considered practically gifted, he was accepted to the best Medical Academy, or ?MedAcad,? on Osiris. Simon graduated in the top 3% of his class, and promptly moved onto a medical internship, which he completed in a mere eight months (as opposed to a year), and is licenced to practice medicine.
