    I can't be bothered to take this test but I did an online one about 2 or 3 months ago and got something in the 140's. I'll settle for that :) not that I believe they are accurate.

    Merely 144 here, no idea about that Stanford-Binet/Cattell stuff though.

    @Wiegraf

    You're from the US, so chev's site is the way to go. They have admissions tests periodically. The procedure is they first mail you a test, you take it at home and send it back to them. Then they send you a letter telling you your results, and whether or not they recommend for you to take the actual admissions exam. I'm not sure what the average Mensa's IQ is, but you have to be in the top 2% of the nation.

    EDIT: And I want to know which 4 questions I got wrong. The one with the dice was the only one I wasn't sure on.

    Hmm... I always thought it was the top 2% of whole Earth's population. But then, they apparently have different score requirements, too, than they had when my information was accurate.

    I got 144, with three questions wrong and 1 not answered.
    I feel dumb today, I've been tested medically for over 150 (actually busted the test ghehe), but that was before I started smoking and drinking.
    Now I'm becoming dumb :eek:

    @Big Bald Ranger: 144 in Wechsler scale is about the same as 150 in Stanford-Binet and they most likely used Stanford-Binet in a medical examination. Also, such little differences are a normal thing and come down to stress, concentration and other factors as well as generic differences between tests.

    Heheh, once they made me do tons of stuff and they didn't give me any score. It was a side thing in getting medical papers for my poor handwriting. It says "exhibits a very high level of intellectual development", but nothing specific. Oh damn, it was actually seven years ago.
