Selena Janik is a three-year-old with curly blonde hair who is seemingly average in every way, except that she has a higher IQ than both the U.S. and British presidents’. Originating from East Tennessee, Selena has scored into the top one percent of an intelligence test! Because of this, she’s been admitted to Mensa, the higher-intelligence organization.
Her parents decided to have her tested after she demonstrated abnormally gifted skills in math and reading. Her father told WBIR that“nine seconds after she was born … she looked up and stopped crying. That was it. I mean, I’ve never seen a newborn do that before.”
Selena isn’t the only exceptionally young person to join Mensa. Last month, a two-year-old named Adam Kirby from Mitcham, Surrey, was admitted to the organization after he scored 141 on an IQ test. He’s learned to potty train himself and knows 100 words at the age of two years old!
We hope these children grow up to have bright futures! What do you think? Share your thoughts below.
