Are you a member of Mensa?

[whattaguy]

30/30 after the second time.

I haven't paid my membership dues in 14 years so I'm an ex-member. The magazine and special interest groups were mildly interesting in the days before the intraweb but belonging now does seem a bit pointless.

High levels of smartness don't automatically make a person more creative, capable or successful, so clinging to a Mensa pin as a sign of greatness is almost as pathetic as being proud of having a blog . And we've learned from The Simpsons that intelligence alone does not make one fit to lead or govern.

Ouch im an idiot 14-30 first test ive ever failed. I found I wanted to shoot myself taking it. But im only 17 so i couldn't do it.

Your score was 14 out of 30. If you had a bad day, try again.

If you don't get it yet, I don't think much of Mensa. :roll:

You said it better than I ever could

All I got out of that was: "whinewhinewhinewhine..."

24/30.. ehh. That's pretty good for guessing the shapes.

Not surprisingly, there are no posts by w00t in this thread.

Your score was 20 out of 30. That is a very good score, you would have a good chance of passing the Mensa test.

i admit to googling one answer, cuase i was to lazy, but
justy skipped the other ones.

Meh, I got about 5 questions into it and wondered to myself "whats the point of this?".

I've already taken my fair share of IQ tests and have gained nothing from any of them.

 

[vshah]

Your score was 29 out of 30. That is an excellent score, you would have a very strong chance of passing the Mensa test and joining Mensa.

meh

 

[Wadded Beef]

i read the 1st question and decided i'm too tired/stupid to try. =]

 

[Conky]

I heard Richard Simmons got very excited at the prospect of joining the Mensa until someone explained what it was to him. :laugh:

 

[amol]

I passed the Mensa test (from an ad in some magazine) when I was 12. I was attracted because the ad promised group discounts for members on a number of things. I did not join. For the record, I have NEVER known anyone who didn't pass that stupid test. I think it's a scam.

Secondly, over the years, I have met a number of actual members. Without exception, they were tedious social retards who, while they may or may not have a high IQ, lacked social and emotional intelligence lacking wisdom and insight and were bloated, boring, social bottom feeders whom any one of us would avoid like hell in any public setting.

Mensa sucks. Their members suck worse.

 

[BespinReactorShaft]

/gives up after glancing thru the first few questions

[shekondar]

25/30

 

[Britboy]

22/30.

I know someone that was a member of Mensa, she stopped going because they were a bunch of losers.

 

[shilala]

I'm a genius, not a friggin calculator.
Stupid Mensa tests.

 

Ah mensa, another practice in intellectual masturbation.

Have never been to a mensa function or anything, perhaps it'd change my more tolerant view of them. Did want to point out though that I think social & emotional "intelligence" is nothing more than a measure of how average someone is. What is being a people-person, really, but relating to people? And how many Mensa members - how many ATers even - can relate to the average joe, who watches reality TV, accesses the internet through AOL and has trouble tying his shoes?

You guys see those grapes growing way up high in that tree?
They are probably sour!

 

[JulesMaximus]

I got 20 out of 30 and I didn't answer any of the word questions where you had to write in the answers.

 

[DeMeo]

I have met some very stupid people that are in mensa.
Seriously, they had some book smarts and were good at math problems, but no common sense at all and no people skills. If you can't apply brains to every day reall life, then what's the use.
