Really?
Mother Teresa was born in Macedonia. She became a nun at 18 in Ireland. So, this picture would have to be pre-1928 since nuns wore habits back then.
The hairstyle doesn't look right for pre-1928, the blouse doesn't look right for pre-1928 and the quality of the picture doesn't look right for pre-1928.
This looks more like a 1950s vintage high-school yearbook photo. It went viral online three years ago and was questioned then.

Snopes.com indicates that this photo in not Mother Teresa at 18 years old, but is Tran Anh Phuong a American of Vietnamese heritage who died in Virginia on 4/20/08. The story has been on the internet for several years. Mother Teresa's life span was 8/26/1910 until 9/5/1997.
