Heidi Hankins, a 4-year-old English girl, has just been accepted by Mensa - an international organization that brings together people with IQs in the top 2% of the population - after reaching 159 points in the official tests, only 1 point below. from geniuses like Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking. According to the organization, the average adult score is 100, and to have the IQ considered high, the person must reach 130 points.

According to the Daily Mail, which talked to the girl's parents, Heidi already knew how to read, add, subtract and recite poems at the age of two. The teachers at the school the girl goes to suggested that she take the IQ test after realizing she was so smart that there were few activities that really challenged her.

Heidi ran a specific test for children her age, and John Stevenage, CEO of Mensa UK, said the girl's results are unlikely to change over time.
