Sherwyn Sarabi scored an IQ of 160, just like Albert Einstein, Bill Gates, and Stephen Hawking. The British boy is already studying at the level of a 9-year-old and has read over 190 books.
A four-year-old boy has stunned psychologists—after intelligence tests revealed him to have the same IQ as Einstein.
Sherwyn Sarabi has tested off the scale for intelligence—scoring an IQ of 160—the highest mark on the test.
It's the same score that experts believe scientist Einstein had, as well as being identical to that of Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking.
Sherwyn from Barnsley, Yorks, started school two years early and became a member of Mensa at the age of three.

>>Mark my words, leftists are more antisemitic and cynical when it comes to Jews.<<
How can you say such a thing when 85% of Jews vote democrat?

Well ... it is a tough life to be smarter than everyone else ... :-) ...
Actually, most people dislike, and mistrust, those smarter than themselves.
If you ain’t rich, then don’t be smart cuz you ain’t gonna have many friends otherwise.
160 is not really all that many stdv’s
!
The real problem is that IQ tests are designed and published by people who are no where nearly as smart as the people at the top of the range they are testing. It is difficult to test what you don't, and can't, imagine the characteristics of which you're testing. Sometimes it is not just more, better, and faster. They assumed they were as smart as those they were testing. For example when they were testing analogies when I was being tested, I saw analogies they simply did not allow for in their "correct," expected answers. There were deeper relationships than the mere gross relationships on their answer sheets. I could justify my answers, but that was not permitted on the test. It's very frustrating to have to go with the lowest common denominator answer that was EASY to see. I aced the spatial relationship example questions. They were simple for me. . . but some questions were distinctly cultural and required to have absorbed what was considered common knowledge. Those were idiotic for a test of intelligence requiring the assumption the testee had been exposed to that knowledge base. Hopefully, that cultural bias has been purged from modern tests. . . and that tests only measure reasoning ability.
"Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity." — Martin Luther King Jr.
“There’s too much we don’t know about intelligence to make such measurements.”
Not to mention how can a person with a 100 IQ write a test for a person with a 160 IQ?
ALL the IQ tests I have seen outside the military include such things as knowledge, which is not IQ. So much for IQ tests, written by morons. Written tests also do not measure unwritten intelligence such as sound recognition, physical capabilities, visual recognition, eye-hand coordination, etc.
Jews are not specifically targeted by leftists overtly. Progressed evolved races as imaged in sci fi stories are in complete opposition to anything deemed obsolete. They are notngoing to come out their sheep clothing. Besides there were many jews who initialy minimized the Nazi danger or collaborated. Many minority people voting left do not know theybare targeted by leftists.
The person writing the story didn’t understand what “off the charts” means. In this case, the test probably only tested up to 160 for a four-year-old. After that, they’re guessing when they say nine years old. He probably answered everything correctly—the definition of being “off the charts.” The only thing that’s illogical is when they say “he was WAY off the charts.” If he’s off the charts, there’s no way to measure how far off.
The way they usually say it is “IQ is whatever the IQ test tests.” It sounds like it’s evading the question but it’s a useful concept. All it does is measure you against everybody else for whatever the test is testing.
I've never met one that bright - probably have to put aside the experience factor we base our decisions/opinions on. The learning curve of the material he is digesting (11 or so years ahead of the average kid while he's 4 years old) is pretty hefty baggage.
Maybe I’m just lucky but every Jew that I have ever met was not ignorant, stupid or what we now call a low information voter. It just never occurred to me that there might be some Jews who were too stupid to recognize the hidden goals of the liberal left. I have always assumed they were a part of it and in full agreement with it. That is “sincere ignorance” on my part, yes, it is.
