Mensa Members

[jack]

I am curious if there are any other members of Mensa on this forum. I am sure there are since its an international organizion and there are many intelligent people here there must be others. I would love to here from you if you are here.

[Heartofthedark]

I'm sorry but i've never heard of that before :S Is it another forum? :?

[jack]

Its a high IQ society. They have branches all over the world. You can take a practice test if you are interested. I'm not recruiting though, I am just curious if there are other members here on the forum.

If you want to take it here is the practice test:

i have know about this for a while i am a TAG student and i am thinking about taking the test for people under 18 I wonder if there is a group near me (i jsut looked something up the youngest member is 3 years old:o)

[Heartofthedark]

I got 11 out of 30 :haha: These questions are hard :S

[funja]

[jack]

The actual test they give is interesting. It is not like the one on their site. You can use SAT scores or other IQ tests to join as well. I could have saved myself from taking their test if I knew SAT scores were allowed.

i have already taken an IQ test :P

Oh cool :P That's easier for people who want to join :D
(Although it wouldn't really matter to me cause there are no SAT's in Canada but I could probably take an IQ test and send that in if I was smart and wanted to join :haha:)

So how's it like being really smart Jack? :Haha:

[humphryboop]

I got 8 out of 30 and I am 10.
that is weird :P

[jack]

There is a list of what IQ tests they accept somewhere. The main thing is that the test has to be overseen and done in person. I don't know if there is a Canadian version of the SATs or not, but if there is they would probably accept itl

[Adventure]

I am not a member, but I am wondering what the purpose is to become a member. Do they have meetings, or are there benefits when you are member? Guess I have some googling and reading to do. :P

Fun test: 27 out of 30. No cheating.

[RBS]

also 27. wonder if we all took the same test. I missed an easy one...doh!


counting from 1 to 100 how many 7's. I completely spaced out on all the 7's in the 70's series.

potato and radish. I chose lettuce.

anagram for insatiable. saved it for last and ran out of time.

[Adventure]

It looks we had the same questions. But I didn't know there was a time limit.

The math question about two person start at the same place and walk 4 meters in opposite direction... Got the idea, but couldn't remember how to do the math, so I guessed (wrong). :$
I skipped the anagram for insatiable too, and forgot about it later. :P
And I got the typists questions wrong. I should have read more carefully. :shy:

[Clank]

I got 23 outta 30 :) Ummmm No but someone from the mensa organisation visited our school to look at our Tv "life" channel and were impressed. And I never cheated.

EDIT- Adventure, Pythagoras thereom about the two men question. Well thats how i did it ;)

[funja]

my tag teacher is researching what kind of IQ test i took :( becuase it was by a licensed psycologist and she forgot lol and my mom doesnt know where my papers are:P

[Crimsonthread]

I took it, along with my brother and dad. I can't remember all of our score, but they were all above 20. :)

I'm curious... what are the benefits of joining Mensa? Other than being able to say, "I'm a Mensa member..." is it just a way to say you're smart?

[GrannyPeggy]

3 that I skipped so: 27/30...It used to be 30/30 but I'm kinda braindead lately...can't unscramble letters like I used to be able to...must be all these meds that make me sleep 14 hours too! Someting's gotta change quick! no like being dumb! Ever read "Flowers For Algernon?" I feel like the last half lately. If you feel smart, and want a scary look at the future if your mind goes, read it! You'll never feel superior again. Very humbling story.
