This Mexican girl, 11, has higher IQ than Einstein, to receive master's degree
Diagnosed with autism at three, Adhara Pérez Sánchez finished elementary school at five, and high school at six. Now, at 11, she's getting her Master's.
Adhara Pérez Sánchez, an 11-year-old girl from Mexico City, is set to achieve a remarkable feat by obtaining her Master's degree at a very young age. Adhara, who has been tested to have a higher IQ than two of the greatest physicists, Albert Einstein and Stephen Hawking, scored an impressive 162 on her IQ test.
French magazine marie clarie reported that this Mexican girl hopes to work with the NASA one day and is currently promoting space exploration and mathematics to young students with the Mexican Space Agency. The 11-year-old has earned a degree in systems engineering from CNCI University and another in industrial engineering with a specialization in mathematics from the Technological University of Mexico.
At three, Adhara was diagnosed with autism
When Adhara Pérez Sánchez was three years old, she was diagnosed with autism, a developmental disorder that can lead to challenges in social interactions and communication.
Adhara grew up in the low-income neighbourhood of Tláhuac and was often bullied for her developmental disability.
