Mensa meeting - like a normal meeting but with a little less small talk. Unless you are talking specifically to someones field and you are also in that field, it's going to be pretty much the same as any other meeting of a group of friends. Also - your score can be impacted by your nerves on the day of testing, if you have a headache, if you're ill, whatever. Like I had a headache when I took the test and the one test was a complete flop (+ I have dyslexia and ADD which doesn't help OOF!) but the visual test was very very good. You only need to pass one to get in.

I took the Mensa Test in 2014, didn't take any of the 3 you took, but instead was offered the Wonderlic and the MAT (Mensa Admissions Test). I didn't do so well on the wonderlic, 35/50, not enough to get in, in fact I didn't even finish, prob only answered 42 or 43 questions, it was really hard because of how little time you get. The MAT was much more of my cup of tea and I was able to get in with a score of 102 out of 150? I don't remember, but the cut-off was 97 I think. Just barely...

Yes me too! The raw score is meaningless because it just tells you how many you got right, but there's no context. The percentile is what's meaningful because it compares you to everyone. And the actual IQ number is an arbitrary number that's assigned to certain percentiles. It works the same with all other types of standardized tests like SAT, GRE, GMAT, etc.
@Wowzersdude-k5c3 жыл бұрын
Mensa stopped providing IQ scores in 2001 to avoid legal troubles. The psychological board will come after you for doing IQ testing without a psychologist's license. Mensa does have psychologists who work for them, but they usually aren't physically present during testing sessions. It's done by volunteers. So, yeah, this is why Mensa now only gives a "pass or fail" score and a percentile ranking. It's actually easy to convert percentiles to an IQ score yourself. You said you scored 90th percentile. This would be about a 120 IQ (Mensa requires 130). This means you're smarter than 90% of people. That's not too shabby. I admire people who have the balls to do stuff like that. People who audition on TV. Or military men who try out for SEAL teams. Most don't make it, but at least they tried. I'm not a member of Mensa, btw. I am too chicken to attempt it because I don't want my self-esteem taking a plunge. You're much braver than me. Haha

You always get to choose what the test means to you. If you let it define how you see yourself, think about how or if that's serving you. You get to decide what is true for you. I remember in elementary school I got tested for the "gifted" program. My score wasn't high enough to get into the program. Thank goodness I didn't let that determine how I saw myself. Similarly I wasn't in the top reading group in 2nd grade when they divided up the class based on reading skills. Nobody can possibly score at the top of every test or way of categorizing people and their abilities. Whether you decide to take another IQ test doesn't matter---what matters is your beliefs about the test. Watch my video on the theory of multiple intelligences.

MENSA MEETINGS - Can be fun, entertaining, boring, geek-ridden, sports-lovin', beer/wine-swilling snack fests, etc --- You know, like just about any other gathering. I've enjoyed all that I've attended - and there have been some wild gatherings, over the years. Mensans come from all walks of life - we're not just a collective of nerdy geeks. The only qualification is to have an IQ in the top 2% of the population you're among. That's it. So we have a wide gamut of members from all over the world that have different beliefs, cultures, experiences, jobs and levels, and so on. It's a great mix, overall. The "worst" testing session I ever ran was when we had an earthquake in the middle of a timed test run. I stopped the timer until everything stopped shaking, and everyone felt OK to go on. I'm sure the poor participants had their minds on getting back home to see if any damage had been done to their homes or contents

The US Mensa tests are not particularly difficult, but they are looking for HOW you think about things rather than mastery of specific subject matter. The verbal test battery bares almost no resemblance to the "practice tests" you can find online.

It’s impossible to measure the distance of a rocket by how accurate it hits a target-some rockets simply shoot further irrespective of accuracy. IQ tests are one tool to show an indication, but not the absolute end-all that some make it appear to be. Cheers!

Your IQ scores are below. Fairly consistent. They should preferably all show the same score as g factor is one single factor - we don't have multiple intelligences, we do have differences in personalities though. But there can be randomness, slight differences in experience/training, and then differences on IQ variables. Women score higher on verbal tests overall, men score higher on spatial tests overall. "Culturally fair" doesn't mean the test is special, it just means there is no language in the test so that a similar intelligent Chinese or Brazilian person would get the same score on it no matter their English language skills. Translating a language test gives you the same end result though. Verbal tests are for people who have lived in the country with the language for 3 or more years, not newcomers. I don't like them as much. They also may test crystallized intelligence which is not ideal. Cattell Culture Fair: 113 IQ Non Verbal Reasoning: 116 IQ SRA Pictorial Reasoning Test: 119 IQ

Hi, You can find a list of testing centers on the Mensa website. I believe right now because of Covid, they're only doing private testing by appointment instead of the usual group testing.

I had similar results when I applied, (I spazzed out during testing. It happens) but I wanted to know what my IQ was. So I looked online, and found out there are different scales. SO you can score 120 on one test, which equates to 160 on another. Here's what I did: I took some detailed IQ tests online, and compared my results to others who were proud enough to post their scores for the same tests online as well. It gives you a good idea of how you compare to others. Hope this helps.

Very true about the variations in raw IQ scores from one test to another. The only common denominator is PERCENTILE. Raw IQ number means nothing and you would be hard-pressed to find anyone in Mensa telling you otherwise. Actually, to be fair, people in Mensa almost never talk about IQ. It's a given you are smart or you wouldn't be there.

@@jamesmoninger1982 I agree with what you said, with one exception. IQ is one of the latest conversation topics today, so of course people with a high IQ are willing to talk about it. People who go to the gym often talk about how much they can lift, and people who run track like to brag about how fast they can sprint. So people who score well on IQ like to talk about intelligence. Why would we be ashamed to admit we're good at something?

@@pattystomper1 Please read my remarks again. I said that members of Mensa yawn when asked to discuss or comment on IQs. I fully understand that other intelligent folk may like to discuss the topic and compare notes, scores, grades, and the like, but at Mensa gatherings, there is ALWAYS something more interesting to talk about. I don't mean this in a condescending manner whatsoever: just my observations since I joined in 1993.

There’s no connection between race and intelligence. Most of the world is made up of people not from your country or race, so it would make sense that the majority of geniuses come from other countries that are not yours and other races that are not Caucasian. For example, 60% of the world’s population lives in Asia, so I would expect approximately 60% of child geniuses to live in Asia.

Cookie, I came across this video while researching IQ. Never seen your channel, but I liked you instantly. The way you held it together reading that rejection letter was great. I would have been throwing shit across the room. 😂😂 The truth is IQ is genetic and there's not much we can do to improve it. You can gain a few points by prepping and studying, but it won't be much. At least you have a tripe digit IQ, I am not even sure I do. I'm probably chillin back in the 90's.😄 IQ is just like natural beauty, not much we can do about it. You got natural beauty that a lot of people don't have. We all have our strengths and weaknesses. There's a lot of Mensa nerds who've never been laid (although not all - there are normal people in there too). You know what you should do? You should take some high-range very difficult IQ tests online. I don't mean that iqtest.com crap, but tests by guys like Paul Cooijmans who properly norms them. They are untimed and very hard, but he has a large sample he has normed it on, so it should be relatively accurate.
