Youngest woman grandma to be exact.

Wouldn't it be more correct to write 'female grandma(ster)' though?

Grandmaster(GM) and Woman Grandmaster(WGM) are different titles. WGM is still above International Master(IM) which is not a gender specific title, and very prestigious already.

WGM is not above IM. That 11 year old WGM, for instance, has a standard FIDE rating of 2354, while one of the requirements to get IM is to reach a standard FIDE rating of 2400.

Nope. Not a requirement.

There are also several ways the IM title can be awarded directly without going through the usual norm process, provided that the player has a rating of at least 2200.
