For one 10-year-old boy from London, school is far ‘too easy.’ 

Krish Arora, a twin from Hounslow, West London, is a genius – he teaches his own teacher, beats his mentor at chess and and is a whizz on the piano. 

A couple of weeks ago, he scored 162 on an IQ test – that’s two more than his ‘hero,’ Albert Einstein. He has now been accepted into Mensa, ‘a stimulating, intellectual and social society.’

He is set to start at the country’s best grammar school, Queen Elizabeth’s School, in September after getting smashing all of 11-plus exams, including achieving a whopping 100% in maths.

Krish said the 11-plus exams were ‘too easy.’ The 10-year-old is looking forward to starting at his new school, which might be more of a challenge.

He added: ‘Primary school is boring, I don’t learn anything. 

‘All we do is multiplication and writing sentences all day. I like to do algebra.’ 

As someone who achieved a B in A-Level maths myself, I tested Krish on a few long-division questions. 

He whizzed through the five or so questions I threw at him in less than a minute, one of which was 4488 divided by 34. And yes, of course they were all correct.

Krish’s friends in school are always asking him for help. So much so that his teacher has started allocating him students to teach in certain lessons, particularly maths. 

He also teaches his friends piano, a skill which he has mastered in under two years.

The genius was featured on the Trinity College of Music ‘hall of fame’ after finishing four grades in just six months. He is currently a grade 7 piano player. 

He has competed in, and won, several musical competitions in West London against young people up to four years older than him. 

Most impressively, he doesn’t need notes to recite instrumentals. His parents say he can remember entire songs on the piano using just his memory. 

He said: ‘I don’t get nervous to perform my music at these competitions because I know that I’m not going to mess up.’ 

The 10-year-old’s mum, Mauli Arora, said her son is ‘always doing something stimulating for his brain.’

He likes to complete crosswords and puzzles in his free time, and loves the television show Young Sheldon. 

His favourite hobby though, is chess. His parents even hired him a chess teacher, who he now regularly beats. 

His dad, 52-year-old Nischal, said: ‘He usually beats his teacher. 

‘He’s going to start completing in chess tournaments soon.’ 

The boy’s parents began noticing they may have raised a ‘genius’ when Krish was just four years old. 

His mum, who works in IT, said: ‘The things he was doing when he was just four were far above what a four-year-old should be able to do.

‘He could read fluently, his spelling was really good, and he has always loved and been good at mathematics. 

‘I remember just before he turned four, he sat with me for three hours and complete an entire maths book. He was doing decimal divisions at the age of four. 

‘When he was in year three, he got sent home with the curriculum for the entire year – he finished it in a day.

‘Whatever he does he wants to excel.’ 

Krish will start at Queen Elizabeth’s School in September.  

He and his parents hope that one day he can be a mathematician.
