This is what a Mensa IQ test looks like

Test starts at 2:26

Test starts at 2:26. I am not promoting Mensa here, I personally would not want to join the organisation. For many of these questions I could see multiple correct answers, but I'm showing the ones that Mensa recognises.

Great news! I took an IQ test; luckily it came back negative

It's funny because in spanish MENSA means silly, fool, idiot, etc.

You can definitely study for an IQ test.
They hit the basic areas of intelligence, so brushing up on those areas will allow you to score better than if you let all those skills atrophy since your school days.
I took the Mensa test and got in. It was fun to see these questions again.

My IQ for trying this test would soon evolve into 'I Quit'.

I’m too busy studying for my drug test.

Took the Mensa test way back, around 1990 or something. It was in Utrecht, the Netherlands. After I had done the test I got an invitation by mail and joined them. Went 2 times to attend a meeting. They have all sorts of interest groups. Met a few very weird people there and never went back again.

Thank you. I've looked before for a legitimate IQ test. It's been a lovely way to pass the time, and I enjoy your candour while going over the answers :)

My uncle was bragging about belonging to Mensa. My Aunt told him, "I'm smart enough that I don't pay people to tell me I'm smart."

The only genius in MENSA is the person who started it by convincing other "geniuses" to pay for membership so they could brag they were members. A classic con, using someone's own ego against them.

i personally think that something like this cant measure intelligence accurately. Because youre essentially trying to find an answer that has been deemed as "Right" by the people who created the test. But the way i see it when it comes to patterns and shapes there could be multiple ways of answering and it wouldnt really make it incorrect if you didnt answer the way it was intended. It also doesnt help when a person can get a score of above avg in one IQ test and a below avg in another. Its not consistent at all.

Studying super hard for my prostate exam tomorrow wish me luck!

I scored a 160 point on my test now i can watch "rick and morty" as well as "big bang theory" and understand the deeper humor

[KpopNiDontStop]

You have a very calming relaxing voice.

[DevJonny]

even i those I could do, I would not be able to explain like you did. Teaching is a talent on itself!

[stabblooder]

My uncle Gary used to say that "You know you're smart when you think you yourself are too stupid to function yet you're constantly flabbergasted by the level of idiocy of everyone around you". Or something like that

All of a sudden everyone has an IQ of 150+

[grelllestrange]

My biggest problem are always the questions where the shapes are like super fancy but the pattern is much more simple than one may think (e. g. number 11 in this one, I couldn't figure it out because I didn't see any pattern in the shape itself and just moved on ). And thank you for explaining 25! I didn't understand why mine was wrong until you explained that the inversion is inwards/outwards, not downwards/upwards like I thought.

Me: I choose "C"
MENSA: You gave the wrong answer
Me: You didn't ask the right question
