The family celebrated with a Hearty meal
I was so proud. He is the first member of the family to take the MENSA exam. He often took tests in a room full of children, so I was a little worried too. We worried that the center’s adults could intimidate him. But he performed admirably,” Yusuf’s mother told the news organization.
The success was celebrated by the family with a delectable meal.
Yusuf says that he was instructed to complete 15 questions in three minutes during one section of the test, which he mistook for 13 minutes. Nevertheless, he managed to place among the top 1%.
“Having a certificate that is both about and for me makes me feel special. I also had no idea I’d be in the news “the 11-year-old said to the press.
Yusuf, who wants to study mathematics at Cambridge or Oxford, has discovered “Yusuf’s Square Rule,” which he named after himself. He enjoys doing Sudoku and solving Rubik’s cubes. He enjoys doing things that challenge his mind. Yusuf, who is only 11 years old, has already served as an example for his younger brother Khalid, who also intends to take the MENSA test.
The high IQ society
Burnaby Swinburne of Bristol had surpassed Einstein’s IQ, much like Yusuf, with a Mensa IQ score of 162. On the two tests, he received results that were in the top 1% and top 4% of the global population, respectively.
Dhruv Garg, a 13-year-old child of Indian descent in the UK, received the highest possible score on his admission IQ exam in 2017, 162, placing him in the top one percent of persons worldwide, according to the Daily Mirror.
When talking about children with higher IQs, the name Jacob Barnett, born in 1998, cannot be overlooked. At the age of 2, he received an autism diagnosis.
The highest ever measured IQ belongs to American magazine journalist Marilyn Vos Savant, who had a score of 228. When she was 10 years old, she received the highest IQ scores.
