16-year-old Lauren Marbe left her teachers stunned
by scoring 161 on her IQ test- more than inventor
Clive Sinclair, Microsoft Guru Bill Gates and even
globally-acknowledged Albert Einstein South West
News Service (SWNS) reported.
The teenager is really proud of her score, especially
because it nullifies all the stigmas associated with
being blonde. She said:
"My teachers knew I was quite clever because of
my grades but they had always thought I was
blonde and a bit ditzy," she told SWNS. "Now they
keep saying 'I didn't realize you were that clever'."
The teenage prodigy is a pupil at Roding Valley
High School in Loughton, Essex where she is a
straight A and A+ student. Though she ultimately
dreams of being a performer in the West End, if
she decides to go to college after high school, she
plans on studying architecture at the University of
Cambridge. She is also a gifted singer, she
performed in the West End for two years as part of
the chorus for Andrew Lloyd Webber's smash-hit
'Joseph'.
Her parents David and Sue Marbe are also proud of
their whizkid. They said they'll support her in
whichever path she decides to follow, and take a
lot of pride in the fact that their daughter may be
able to put an end to the 'blondes are dumb' labels
in their community.
"Most of the time Essex gets a bit of a negative
press. People think all girls are blonde and all girls
are dim. Lauren is blonde but it does seem like she
has shaken the stereotype that all Essex girls are
stupid," they said.
"Essex girls are all well groomed and Lauren isn't
any different. Her and her friends like to go out and
get dressed up in nice clothes. There's nothing
wrong with the TOWIE cast and everyone in Essex
loves the program but its just nice for us all to get
a good reputation for academic success for a
change."
