A THREE-YEAR-OLD boy who can count to 200 and name every country in the world has become one of the youngest members of Mensa.

Sherwyn Sarabi, from Barnsley, South Yorkshire, is ranked among the top 1 per cent of cleverest people in the world after tests revealed he had an IQ of 136.

His mother, Amanda, said she was really proud of her gifted son, whom she described as “amazing”.

By the age of two, Sherwyn could read, count to 200, recognise and name countries, flags, planets in the solar system, parts of the body and internal organs.

Sherwyn has also started attending the Rastrick Independent School, in Brighouse, West Yorkshire, where a special lesson plan has been designed for him.
