The Top Ten
1 Terence Tao Terence "Terry" Chi-Shen Tao is an Australian-American mathematician who has worked in various areas of mathematics.

He attended high school at age 7 and attended UNIVERSITY LEVEL MATH COURSES AT 9 YEARS OLD! He should stay at number one.

He went to university when he was 7. he can solve difficult problems in his head

He is the cleverest

How is he not first

2 Selena Gomez Selena Marie Gomez is an American actress and singer. She is best known for songs like "Come & Get It", "Good For You", "Same Old Love", and "It Ain't Me". Selena Gomez's voice is mezzo-soprano but she usually sings in alto. She is best known for her role as Alex Russo in Wizards of Waverly Place.

This is the dumbest list I have ever seen. How the hell are SELENA GOMEZ AND RIHANNA over Neil Degrasse Tyson. I like some of Rihanna's songs but her and Selena Gomez probably have an IQ of a rock.

No doubt for me!

What the heck.

Guinness retired the "Highest IQ" category in 1990 after concluding IQ tests were too unreliable to designate a single record holder.
