Winner of Child Genius 2017, Rahul (believed to have a higher IQ than Albert Einstein) says the competition was a fun, exciting challenge. “I would definitely recommend taking part,” he said. “It was exhilarating, especially the part when you had to answer questions at the podium and I would jump at the opportunity to do it again. You also get to meet other clever children of a similar age to you and you are able to share your hobbies and interests with them.

“So in summary, if you enjoy a challenge, performing under pressure as well as meeting new people then Child Genius is definitely for you - go for it!”
