A 6-year-old New Jersey girl is wowing the world with her smarts. Her IQ, 138, is right at genius level. To put this in perspective, the highest average score for people under 64 years of age is 109.
Declan Lopez is a bubbly kindergartener interested in arts, science, math, and geography, and reads at a fourth-grade level. She has recently been integrated into the Mensa society, the oldest high-IQ society in the world.
Declan goes to school in Dover, where most teachers are “amazing and supportive,” her mother, Meachel Lopez, told USA TODAY on Friday.
“Her current school offers her a once-a-week coding game to attempt to provide her with some added stimulation as they currently do not offer a gifted program until the third grade,” Lopez said.
