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.

Now ... that’s a different kind of “education” ... :-) ...
Ok, that makes sense.
Thanks
The problem with the IQ tests is that all they measure is how well one can do on IQ tests.
So he obsessed like a woman with all of his extra hemisphere connections? ;-)
I don’t know if I would use the phrase “rational mind” — in the negative — with Albert Einstein. I would say that he exemplifies a rational mind to a very high degree. I think some other term might be more apt ... :-) ...
That makes at least two of us. I have no need to know either. If I found out that it was high, I might be as vain as some people touting their own numbers and if it were low, I might be embarrassed and if it were average..........Well, who the heck wants to be average?
Support for socialism and a rational mind are polar opposites.
And in following up with that assessment, I would say “how well one performs on IQ tests” also carries over into real life in very directly observed ways ... in other words, there is a correlation ...
Wait till he reaches puberty and discovers girls..........
That may be popular if one has a particular political viewpoint (as is true on this forum) - but it is not true by definition.
I personally don’t think “rationality” has a big part in a political persuasion, although all parties try to maintain that it does ... :-) ...
Rand? Einstein? In the end no I.Q. mattered. Rand was an atheist, I don't know Einstein's religious leanings. Jewish maybe?
Your #44 is funny.
Nor has it prevented you from reminding us yet again how smart you are...........LOL!
Just do us all a favor, change your tag line to "I"m a member of Mensa, I have an IQ of 164 and gosh darn it, I am smart!".......LOL!
Why would high IQ prevent leftist thinking? The ideology is based on a small set of geniuses telling everyone what’s good for them. Morality and wisdom are what separates left and right, not intelligence.
In the end no I.Q. mattered.
I’ve read a couple of his books. He was a great character, really interesting guy.
He was an Ashkenazi Jew (European Jewry) but I don’t think he was an observant religious Jew.
Right.
But can he juggle?
Excellent point
I’m sorry if you’re offended. I;m not sure how accurate the tests were, because I had a system for taking tests back then. Doesn’t matter, I made a lot of dumbass decisions in my life. But the test results stand. Am I smart? Yes,, in some areas. I can’t see why it bothers you.
After I disappeared from my home, Mensa somehow tracked me down. They invited me to a meeting. I hung around for about 15 minutes, before sneaking out the door. I’d never met such a huge number of a-holes. Make of it what you will.
