Keira and Krish Arora (MyLondon/BPM Media) Keira and Krish Arora Keira and Krish Arora (MyLondon/BPM Media) Keira and Krish Arora Keira and Krish Arora (MyLondon/BPM Media) 1 2 British-Indian twins Krish and Keira Arora, 11, have been taken in by the elite Mensa membership club of children with a high intelligence quotient (IQ), after each successfully cleared a tough set of challenges. Between the two, Krish was the first to be accepted. He achieved 162 marks, the highest score in a Mensa-supervised IQ Test session, placing him in the top 0.26 per cent of children with high IQ. Not to be left behind, Keira followed soon. Recently, she scored 152 on the Cattell III B scale, placing her in the top 2 per cent. Mauli Arora, the siblings' mother, said the twins are "extremely competitive." "They are very competitive, and Keira was inspired to give the Mensa test due to Krish," PTI quoted Arora, a Delhi-born senior IT manager who studied computer engineering in Pune, as saying. "Our parenting style is very hands-on and we are actively involved with them on a day-to-day basis. Krish takes private piano lessons and also learns robotics on the weekends. Keira writes poetry and loves creative writing," Arora said. "Krish is very analytical and very strong in maths. He would like to go to Cambridge to study maths and eventually be an actuary. Keira is very creative and writes beautiful poetry. However, would like to be a lawyer, specifically studying commercial law," the mother added. Their father Nischal, an electronics engineer from Mumbai, moved to the United Kingdom with his family around 25 years ago. The twins studied in the local public school in Hounslow, west London.
