You yourself are not overmuch intelligent. Had you any contact with
with top 0.1% of intelligence you would know that is dirt common:
statistically 290,000 folks in the US alone. Uncle Al's high school
cohort - a group of 35 nerds and geeks of both sexes - *averaged* over
1300 on the SAT.

That doesn't sound very impressive now, but I suppose it was long before
the SAT was made so easy you could get a near perfect score without
studying.
