3-year-old Alexis Martin has IQ above 160
...
The doctors who tested Alexis said she tested so high, they couldn’t even calculate her IQ score.
Alexis started reading when she was two-years-old. Her father, Ian Martin, said she showed signs of her capabilities when she was just a year old, ABC15 reported.
“From 12-18 months old, we'd be driving around in the car and she would recite her bedtime story from the night before,” he said. “She didn’t just recite them, she recited them exactly.”
It’s not just her 5th grade reading level that’s shocking, Alexis also taught herself Spanish via her parents’ iPad.
