British-Indian twins Krish and Keira top score in prestigious IQ test, join Mensa

A pair of British-Indian twins, whose parents studied in India before moving to the UK, scored remarkably in a tough IQ test that made them join the prestigious Mensa society.

Mensa is a well-known IQ society.

Eleven-year-old Krish Arora scored 162, the highest point that can be achieved in the Mensa Supervised IQ Test session.

Keira, his sister, also dominated the test and scored 152 on the Cattell III B scale, an impressive performance in the prestigious assessment.

Mauli Arora describes her children as 'competitive'

Their mother described her children as 'highly competitive'.

“They are very competitive, and Keira was inspired to take the Mensa test after Krish,” their mother, Mauli Arora, a senior IT manager originally from Delhi who studied computer engineering in Pune, told Business Standard.

“Krish takes private piano lessons and attends robotics classes on weekends, while Keira enjoys writing poetry and is passionate about creative writing,” she said.

Their father, Nischal, an electronics engineer from Mumbai, moved to the UK 25 years ago.

The family currently lives in Hounslow, west London.

The twins are currently attending a local public school.

Mauli said Krish wants to study maths at Cambridge.

“Krish wants to study maths at Cambridge and become an actuary, while Keira dreams of becoming a commercial lawyer,” she told the newspaper.
