1) It's just for enjoyment, and for a bit of a perk to the ego. It's just a club. 2) Also, Mensa members form many 'special interest groups' or simply 'SIGs' which encompass many hobbies and study areas. Membership of Mensa allows one to join these groups and thus meet others with similar interests. There is also a provision for Mensa members to stay with other overseas members when travelling which is a potentially great benefit if utilised, as there are members worldwide who are willing to provide accommodation at no charge for fellow Mensans. The original answer does however hold some truth, there is a temptation to join purely because you can. You can get a nice plaque which my makes your mum really proud. It's worth it just for that!
Because of differences in test score interpretation they no longer accept just an "IQ Score" from a test. Candidates for membership in Mensa must achieve a score at or above the 98th percentile on a standard test of intelligence. This means that you must score as well, or better than 98% of the people taking the test.The reason that they no longer accept a simple "IQ Score" is that the standard deviation of one test is not equal to other tests. This being said it means that there is really no way to compare scores of one test with another. People may score 140 on on test, but score 130 on another totally different test. There would be no way to compare these two scores to interpret which score was higher. Some tests maximum score is less than another test's maximum score making it appear that a person scored lower than other people who took the other test. If you scored 140 and I scored 170, but we took totally different tests you may have actually scored higher than me. If your test maxed out at 145 score and mine maxed our at 300 my score would then appear to be significantly lower...Hope this helps...
23/60 in a test still equals 23/60. Just because it is in a test does not change the fraction!23/60 in a test still equals 23/60.

The accuracy of the Mensa IQ test in determining one's intelligence level is generally considered to be high. However, it is important to note that intelligence is a complex and multifaceted trait that cannot be fully captured by a single test. The Mensa IQ test is just one measure of intelligence and should be interpreted in conjunction with other factors.
There are two ways in which American Mensa can be joined: 1. If you are above 14 age, then you can take a standardized and supervised test from one of the certified member volunteers. 2.Just submit the proof of your prior testing in the form of scores of standardized tests like GMAT, the Stanford Binet or the Miller Analogies Test.
Not all IQ tests are the same.I just finished the iqtestpro.com IQ test and I got IQ of 131, however when I did Mensa IQ test it was 134.You should try multiple tests to get the most accurate IQ score you can.
If you want an IQ quiz for fun on a girly site, then the IQ test on gurl.com is a good one, or you could just google it. If you actually want to find out your IQ, you'd have to ask a psychologist for one. Accurate IQ tests are the same whether you are a boy or a girl. Answer The most accurate and most complete IQ test, which comes with several mental test scores in addition to an overall IQ and possibly some advice or diagnosis, can be given to you one-on-one by a psychologist. If you have to pay for this test yourself, you should plan on paying $300-$750, depending upon where you live, the experience of the tester, and so forth. If you go this route, assuming you're over 16, you should ask to have either the WAIS-III, WAIS-IV, OR SB-5 tests (your psychologist will know what these are). These are the the tests that are best understood scientifically, and have stood the test of time.If I were you, I would also check with your school counseling office to see if you might qualify to get an IQ test through the school, as part of academic or career counseling. Failing that, you can check with a nearby adult occupational training center. Any of these offices will be able to test you at nominal cost, or for free. The test that you'd take, however, is likely to be a group IQ test. These tests are fine if used to give you a rough idea where you stand. If the result is either quite high or low, you should get a followup individual test with a psychologist. There are three other, low-cost or free ways to get an IQ test, or something close to an IQ test.First, you can take a military aptitude test known as the ASVAB. This test is free and is offered through military recruiters. The ASVAB is made up of many different subtests, but a group of 4 of those subtests, called the AFQT, is an IQ test. Your AFQT score can be converted into a percentile, and the percentile can then be converted into a standard IQ. You can get help with this here on WikiAnswers or by googling. Second, you can take a college entrance exam, such as the SAT or the ACT. These tests are also made of of a number of subtests. Certain of these subtests can be combined, and and an IQ score derived from a percentile. This approach will probably be slightly less accurate than the AFQT approach. Finally, you can take the MENSA home test (you can check the American Mensa site for details). The MENSA home test is not just for people with high IQs; anyone who can understand the instructions can take it. This $18 test is taken at home and mailed back to MENSA for scoring. My understanding is that you will receive an IQ score result back. Please note, the MENSA home test is NOT the same thing as the official MENSA test, which can be used to qualify for MENSA (the MENSA home test can't, because it is unsupervised). The official test is also an IQ test, but MENSA never tells you what your IQ is. You are merely told whether or not you scored high enough to get in to MENSA. So if you want an estimate of your IQ, you should take the MENSA home test.
An "IQ" test is supposed to be an approximation of your 'mental' age compared to your 'physical' age. It's validity is broad, at best, especially with the very young or old. A 145 would mean 145% of a standard 14 year old - - about 20.3 yrs.AnswerIQ test scores are arranged on a bell curve and a score of 100 should represent the mean, or average, score of those tested. In other words, half of those taking the test should score lower and half should score higher. A score of 145 means that the testee scored higher than approximately 99% of those who took the test. Age is not a factor on a properly constructed IQ test. However, American Mensa does not inform test takers of their IQ when they take the Mensa exam, only that they have passed or failed. To know that a 14 year old scored a 145 on the Mensa exam would thus not be possible.AnswerThe previous answers are interesting, but there are some inaccuracies, and neither put forth a straightforward, simple answer. If you have a score, and you have taken a Mensa test, then you have taken the "Mensa Home Test" (MHT). The MHT is not suitable for admission to Mensa (primarily because it is unsupervised). For that same reason, while your score is moderately interesting, it can't be compared to a score on a supervised IQ test. It's got the same problem as most of the internet IQ tests people claim to do so well on. It's just not a trustworthy result.With all of that, a high score on the Mensa Home Test (and 145 is a high score) does suggest that you would get in to Mensa if you took their supervised test. As one of the previous answers indicated, the Mensa admission test no longer provides an IQ score -- it's only a pass/fail.One other thing. The meaning of an IQ of 145 varies, depending upon the IQ test you've taken. Anyone who claims to have an IQ of 145 must be prepared to say exactly on which test this score was achieved. On some tests, a score of 145 would be achieved by about 1 in every 50 people (the top score in a large classroom of people; that's the Mensa standard of the top 2%). On other tests, a score of 145 would represent someone of truly exceptional intelligence. Such a score would be achieved by only 2 or 3 people in a large big-city high school (1 in 1000, or top 1/10 of 1%)
Free online IQ tests are a waste of time. A real IQ test is matched to the person's background, administered in a controlled setting by a trained person, and consists of up to 400 timed questions.Online tests, with the exception of the paid tests available from Mensa, are all designed to sell you something, and their provenance is questionable. Don't waste your time and money.If you wish, you can order a home test from Mensa, which will give you a good idea of your potential. The link is below.Note: This writer is a Mensa member, but gains nothing from your purchase of this test. Mensa charges only to cover shipping, printing and scoring.Hello! If you want a websit this is a very good one only asking for a gender and birth date, That's it!!Here it is: http://www.quizrocket.com/free-IQ-testI did it, it is awsome!Just a warning, the test at the above address is highly flattering. It is not uncommon to score 130 on this test, which is a 1 in 33 chance normally.
The skin test takes just a minute to administer.
Mensa just told me it scores in the 76th percentile in my rejection letter....
I took a preganacy test 3 hours ago and then i just started my period

You won't.
80 hours is about what the edge of detection is, but of course it can vary from individual to individual. The test indicates that alcohol has been ingested, not how much.
