Girl, 2, Becomes Member of Mensa
This is pretty damn amazing. From the BBC:
“A two-year-old girl from Hampshire has become the youngest ever female member of British Mensa.”
“Georgia Brown, from Aldershot, Hampshire, astounded experts by scoring 152 in an IQ test — putting her in the top 2% of the population for her age.”
“Psychologist Joan Freeman, who tested Georgia, said she thought the toddler could have scored even higher but needed a nap after 45 minutes of work.
“Georgia was crawling at five months, walking at nine months and, by 18 months, was having proper conversations.”
“Freeman told the BBC: “She is two years, nine months — not very much older than a toddler really — and she is able to answer questions five and six-year-olds can’t.”
