Anyone here ever take the Mensa exam?
 
Just curious. I have one scheduled at 6:30 tonight and I was just wondering what to expect.

I tried to, but I couldn't figure out how to get my pen to work. It was one of those that didn't have the clickie thing on top, and I tried twisting it, pushing things that looked like buttons, pulling off caps, and everything, and never could figure it out, so I finally gave up and went home. It was only a couple of hours later that I figured out that it was actually a pencil.

Take it? Where? I didn't take it!

Good luck, Third Eye. Hope you pass. What do you get for passing it?

To pay dues every year so you can hang with the smart kids! Oh, and you can attend MENSA meetings and talk about how smart you are...cool club ROFL

Membership into MENSA - you have to score (have an IQ) in the top 2% for admittance.

Nothing really. Just resume fodder, and a little personal satisfaction. I've always wanted to try, just recently decided that there is no better time than now. I looked it up and found out that the entrance requirements were lower than I thought. So why not?

MENSA can be a decent networking tool, but that's about it.

El Jefe 10-19-2007 09:34 AM

Expect the unexpected.

No dues. $40 bucks to take the test, lifetime membership thereafter.
Oh and it goes a little further on a resume than "Damon Huard Fan Club Member." Idiot.

Good luck Third Eye, I've never taken it. I've only taken the online IQ tests and scored high.
