12-year-old girl has IQ higher than Einstein


LONDON: With an IQ of 162, a 12-year-old schoolgirl in UK has been rated brainier than even Albert Einstein and Stephen  Hawking.
Olivia Manning, from Liverpool, has been accepted into Mensa, the largest and oldest high IQ society in the world after she got a score of 162 in an Intelligence test.
Her score is not only two points better than German genius Einstein and physicist Hawking, it puts her in the top 1% of intelligent people in the world, the Daily Mail said. Being honored with entry into Mensa means she will join a network of brains from across the globe.
Olivia admits having a knack for quickly absorbing and remembering new information, however, confessed being "speechless" after she discovered her score.
She barely needs a script - she said she learned her lines for a Macbeth production within 24 hours.
