A 12-year-old Indian girl recently outsmarted Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking – oh, and you – when she got a perfect score on an IQ test. She even had time to spare.
Lydia Sebastian is virtually the only preteen in the world who begged her parents to let her take the famous Mensa IQ test, which says a lot to begin with. The young girl achieved the maximum possible score of 162 on the Cattrall III B paper, making her an actual genius.
To put things into perspective, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking both acquired a 160 – and they were fully grown men.
But like all pretentious 12-year-olds, Sebastian isn’t that impressed with her score. “At first, I was really nervous but once I started, it was much easier than I expected it to be and then I relaxed,” she explained. “I gave it my best shot really.”
Kids these days!
Sebastian is starting her second year at Colchester County High School for Girls. Did we mention she’s only 12?!
