Perth teen has IQ higher than genius scientist Stephen Hawking, want to find cancer cure

  PERTH - A teenager from Perth has been declared as Australia's smartest kid after attaining a higher IQ than genius scientist Stephen Hawking, according to intelligence society Mensa. Sharvin Jeyendran, 14, from Sacred Heart College, scored an intelligent quotient of 168 or eight points higher than the renowned physicist. The Australian-based network 9News reported on Friday that the teenager was naturally smart at a young age, and even started walking and holding normal conversations at nine months. Jeyendran’s mother, Deva, said that at a young age he started talking "like how a two- or three-year-olds could speak with proper sentences and grammar". In a separate interview with 9News, Jeyendran said he wanted to be biological scientist and try to find a cure for cancer. "I also want to be a marine biologist to explore the seas and also have my own charity for all the poor people in the world," he added. Despite his recent recognition, Jeyendran enjoys playing basketball and kicking a soccer ball in his backyard like a typical teenager would do. Jeyendran is also a talented pianist. His test score has ranked him in the top two percent of intelligent people in the world.
