2-Year-Old US Girl Becomes Youngest Member In Mensa, The High-Iq Society

Isla was accepted into Mensa after scoring in the 99th percentile of intelligence for her age group on the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales.

Isla McNabb, a 2-year-old girl from Crestwood, Kentucky, United States, has achieved the extraordinary feat of becoming the youngest-ever member of Mensa, a high-IQ society. Guinness World Records confirmed her exceptional intelligence, noting that Isla scored in the 99th percentile for her age group on the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales. This child prodigy has demonstrated cognitive abilities that defy her tender age, showcasing a promising future ahead.

Mensa International is the largest and oldest high-IQ society in the world, with over 140,000 members in more than 100 countries. To become a member, individuals must score at or above the 98th percentile on a standardized IQ test. This means that they are among the top 2% of the population in terms of intelligence.

According to Guinness World Records, Isla's parents noticed she had very focused attention from the moment they brought her home. Although she was clearly very bright, nothing seemed quite out of the ordinary-until she began learning. At just a year old, Isla started learning her colours, numbers, and the alphabet.
