Top 9 People With Highest IQ

There’s no uncertainty that Einstein and Edison were really shrewd, yet today, we’ve tracked down another class of ‘keen’. Since truly, IQ levels are arriving at new statures and obviously, advancement and imagination is just improving constantly. In the light of which, wouldn’t it be horrendous to pass up these masters who are at present the most astute personalities around?

Leonardo Da Vinci

Leonardo Da Vinci, a renowned painter known for works such as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, is one of history‘s most celebrated geniuses. He was also able to produce technical advances such as flying robots, armoured cars, and adding machines with an estimated IQ score varying from 180 to 220.

Terence Tao

Terence Tao, known as “the Mozart of Math,” was a child math prodigy who now teaches at UCLA. His IQ ranges between 211 and 230. His contributions to number theory and harmonic analysis have made him well-known. In 2015, he was awarded $3 million for winning the new Breakthrough Prize in Mathematics, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Ainan Cawley

 

Ainan Cawley, who had IQ scores ranging from 263 to 349, could recite Pi to the 518th decimal position by the age of nine. He gave a science lesson on acid and alkaloids when he was six years old. He had passed the Chemistry O level exam by the age of seven (specifically made for 16-year-olds). He enrolled in the Singapore Polytechnic on his eighth birthday.

Ettore Majorana

Ettore Majorana was an Italian theoretical physicist who studied neutrino masses, which are electrically neutral subatomic particles generated in nuclear reactions. His IQ ranged from 183 to 200. He went on to become a lecturer at the University of Naples before mysteriously disappearing whilst on a sea ride and never being identified.

Stephen Hawking

Stephen Hawking was a well-known physicist and the individual with the highest IQ score of 160 in England. He was best known for his popular science books, including “A Brief History of Time,” which he published in 1988. In this book, he outlined his discoveries in theoretical physics, including the evolution of the “Big Bang,” a massive explosion in space.

Marilyn Vos Savant

Marilyn Vos Savant was born in 1946 and became famous as a teenager after being named in the Guinness Book of World Records as the individual with the highest IQ score in 1980. The highest IQ score at the time was 190 points, which she achieved. Marilyn Vos Savant became a well-known writer after being noticed by Guinness, with a book called “Ask Marilyn” and “Annie’s Mailbox,” where people could give her questions.

Christopher Hirata

Christopher Hirata is a genius who has the world’s highest IQ. In 1996, he made history by becoming the youngest American to win an Olympic gold medal in physics. He was 13 years old at the time. Christopher Hirata enrolled at California Institute of Technology when he was 14 years old and went on to Princeton University to pursue his Master’s degree when he was 22 years old.

Albert Einstein

Since Albert Einstein had never taken an IQ test, his IQ could not be determined with certainty. Experts in IQ testing, on the other hand, determined Albert Einstein’s IQ score to be between 160 and 190. Albert Einstein was a German scientist who developed the theory of relativity. He was born in 1879.

William James Sidis

The IQ of William James Sidis has not been determined. Experts, on the other hand, estimated his IQ to be between 250 and 300. That means he was the individual with the highest IQ ever seen. He was born in 1898 and started studying mathematics at Harvard University when he was eleven years old. He is the first person to enrol in America’s most prestigious university.
