Congratulations have been pouring in from friends and family around the world.
London: An 11-year-old Indian origin schoolgirl has secured the highest-possible marks on a British Mensa test and was invited into the elite Mensa membership club of children with a high IQ.

Jiya Vaducha scored the highest possible marks of 162 on the Cattell III B paper recently. “As parents we are absolutely elated about Jiya’s achievement. From a very young age, she displayed characteristics of someone with a high intellect but by scoring 162, she has completely surprised us,” said Jiya’s mother Bijal, an accountant by profession who runs a software consultancy Schnell Solutions Limited with her husband Jignesh.

“Now the real task begins for us to ensure she get the opportunities where she is able to fulfil her full potential,” she said, whose extended family is based in Mumbai.

Congratulations have been pouring in from friends and family around the world, with Jiya turning into a mini-celebrity as her autograph is sought by some of her schoolmates ever since the results came out earlier this month.
