Via Ninety Miles From Tyranny

"Precocious" is probably too weak a word for three-year-old Alexis Martin. The little girl has just become the youngest-ever member of Arizona's chapter of Mensa.

Mensa is the world's oldest and largest society for those who score at the 98th percentile or higher on a standardized IQ test. Alexis, who started reading at just two years old, has an IQ of over 160, CNN reports.

That's an approximate figure, because Alexis scored so high on the IQ test that doctors couldn't even calculate her actual score.

Oh, and she's fluent in Spanish as well, having taught herself on her parents' iPad. (A device older than she is.)
