10 Most Intelligent People Alive Today

7 Judit Polgar

Judit was born in Hungary, and has grown to become an amazing chess grandmaster. Back in 1991 she attained the title of Grandmaster at the age of 15 years and 4 months, and became the youngest person to hold the title.

Her IQ is 170 and the fact that she has beaten nine former and present world champions as well as Boris Spassky, must say a lot about her.

She created history again in 2002 when she beat the world number 1 Garry Kasparov (who has an IQ of 190).

She is the only woman in FIDE’s Top 100 list.
