He did score 215:
"He was born Truman Streckfus Persons in New Orleans, Louisiana, on September 30, 1924, and was sent to Monroeville, Alabama, to be raised by his mother's relatives. His experiences from that time are captured in the 1956 story "A Christmas Memory."In 1933, he moved to New York City to live with his mother and her second husband, Joseph Capote, who adopted him and renamed him Truman García Capote in 1935. Capote attended the Trinity School where he was given an IQ test as an entrance exam, and he scored 215, the highest in the school's history. He later attended the Dwight School in New York (where an award is given in his name annually) and Greenwich High School in Greenwich, Connecticut (where he wrote for the school paper, The Beak), although he ended his formal education when he was 17".

A quite wide and long face at once as seen among Mongolids.
Alpo-Cromagnid impression but with a deal of Nordid features. Looked broader when he was older due to the adiposity.
Alpinoid after Lundman = low & brachycephalic head.
Danish Borreby skulls = high & brachycephalic head.
Cromagnoid = low & dolichocephalic head.

Einstein seems he had an IQ 160 how this guy could have an IQ 215 ? I doubt about it.
QI test need be applicable by serious profissionals and a score of 215 needs be repeated for
a accurared result.
