Indiana's Jake Barnett is a 12-year-old who knows his way around numbers. Maybe that's because he has an IQ (intelligence quotient) of 170—ten points higher than world-famous genius Albert Einstein, who clocked in on the brain scale at 160.
Jake, who was diagnosed with Asberger's syndrome as a toddler (a form of autism), was solving 5,000-piece puzzles at age 3, and later taught himself calculus, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry in a single week!
He's currently attending advanced astrophysics classes at Purdue University in Indianapolis, where he is working on an expanded version of Einstein's famous theory of relativity. Good luck, Jake!
Here's Jake explaining a simple little something called techniques of integration in Calculus 2. Follow along, everybody!
