BTW, if you listen to the guy speak, it's clear that he's got a very quick mind.
I don't think the score itself has been verified, but, given that he ended graduating Harvard Law cum laude (and at the age of 23), it'd probably be more surprising if it wasn't alarmingly high.
He's got a quick mind, to be sure, but, sadly, he realised he can make a lot more money using that mind for bullshit than for good.
That's impressive, but not as much as it sounds.
A kid who graduates high school at 17 (common), who takes the maximum AP courses (less common, but there were at least 25 or so of these kids at the high school I taught at) can easily complete a university degree in three years, at age 20. A further three years of Harvard Law makes them 23 at graduation. He's probably in the 95th percentile of his age group, but so were the majority of my fellow Engineering honor students.
Disappointing theists since 1968!
