12-year-old Lydia Sebastian has achieved the maximum Mensa IQ test score, beating Albert Einstein and Prof Stephen Hawking. Lydia, who was tested on her language skills and sense of logic, said that the test was “much easier than I expected it to be.”

 

Mensa is the oldest intelligence society in the world and membership is restricted to those who IQ test scores are within the top two per cent of all results.

 

Lydia’s father, Arun, said he was “overwhelmed” by his daughter’s achievement, whom he said has been wanting to take the test for over a year.

 

Lydia’s speciality is in Maths, but she clearly aced the reasoning and language-based test.
