In a small burst of brainpower from Illinois, a 4-year-old achieved an astonishing IQ score of 156 out of 160 and received an elite welcome into Mensa, the worldās oldest and largest high-IQ group. While most kids this age struggle with tying shoes or the alphabet, this tiny genius apparently aced a test that usually scares grown-ups. Mensa, known for accepting adults who brag at cocktail parties, now has a new pint-sized member who might redefine "playdate." No word yet if nap time requires a group IQ discussion or if the preschooler prefers the standard finger paints or complex sudoku puzzles.
