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.

I wonder how his high IQ will play into his politics, when he grows up?

Well, I don't know about Einie, but Hawking and Gates are just a little bit to the left.

Now me on the other hand. I'm proud to say very far to the right.

If he’s really smart, he’ll get the first flight out to Mars to colonize it,, at least there will be no Obamacare there so the outlook is positive.

High IQ doesn’t seem to prevent leftist magic thinking, if Gates and others like him is any indication.

An IQ of 160 at 4 years old only means that he is 60% smarter than the average 4 year old ... wait until he’s a teenager to see if he’s really smart ... a 160 at 4 just means that he can do what a low achieving 2nd grader can do ...

Funny thing is that Einstein married his cousin.

Laughably false on multiple counts. It means he is more than 4 standard deviations above the mean intelligence of the human population regardless of age. He is in or above the top .003% of the population.

Don’t confuse acquired skills (which correlate with age) with intelligence (aptitude). Totally different things.

I’m skeptical of any claim that the IQ of a 4 year old can be accurately measured.
