IQ scores vary from test to test. Admission to Mensa requires a score in the top 2% on any accepted standardized test, a list of which can be acquired from Mensa. The 2% cutoff on these tests fluctuates, and does not always translate to an IQ of 130 or above (the traditional definition of genius level IQ.)

How do you measure intelligence?

Intelligence is measured by taking a professional IQ test such as the Standford-Binet. MENSA has a Home IQ Test that can be taken in your home as the name implies. However, there is a testing fee of about $15.00. I've taken it and it is very accurate; however, the Home IQ test is not considered a professional IQ test. It provides a possible "snapshot" of ones IQ. If you score close to around 125, MENSA will inform you that you may be smart enough to gain acceptance into MENSA. However, to gain acceptance you can either take the MENSA IQ Test that is administered several times per year. For information on when the test will be offered and test locations through your country, visit your local MENSA website. MENSA accepts more than 200 IQ Tests and other tests where the scores can be converted into the equivalent of IQ scores. For more information visit: http://www.kids-iq-tests.com/mensa-tests.html

''Above plant life at least.'' QUOTE. ^^ Not particularly helpful, is it? To qualify for Mensa you have to be in the top 2% of the population, IQ-wise. There is a MENSA test you can take to see whether you qualify or you could take a different IQ test for example CattellB-III. I hope that this helps with your enquiries.
