Toddler in MENSA

Georgia Brown of Hampshire, England, has a 152 IQ and is the youngest member of MENSA. She's two years old. Brown's parents noticed how clever she was after she started crawling at five months, walking at nine, and chatting with people by the time she was eighteen months old.

From the BBC News:

(Middlesex University) 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…

She 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.

"The test uses questions like 'If brother is to boy, then sister is to …?'. If you take a normal two-year-old, they cannot hold a pencil, they don't know the colours and they would not be able to answer those simple questions.

"The thing I found most striking was the copying of a circle. Most two-year-olds cannot do that but she drew a perfect one.
