Are you a genius?

[rachelmb]

i'm not a genius, but i got about 13.

 

[Robor]

Meh, I got a 17. At least I got over 50%! Still don't get 24. Isn't it "13 loaves in a bakers dozen"?

Got to love Mensa members. All of the ones who I have met thought I owed them something for being in their presence. In college I was offered a Mensa test after I took an intelligence problem solving test. I told the "member" to shove the test. It was like I just spit on his mom's grave.

The real Mensa is at www.mensa.org. FYI you don't need to be a genius to become a member, just to score at or above the 98th percentile rank on a valid IQ test.

Sadly the benefits aren't even close to those of a Stonecutter.

This guy is the only smart guy in the whole lot of ya!

This test cant really test 'genius' its more about knowledge than actual intelligence.

I'm stuck at 18 right now...

Finality: Read the fine prints:
Believe it or not, this type of test can be a good estimate of intelligence (if you excuse the cultural bias).
People that did well on this type of test are likely those who are gifted with verbal ability and linguistic pattern recognition.
This sort of assessment would discriminate against those with non-linguistic pattern recognition (like solving jigsaw puzzles)
and spatial intelligence (like the ability to use a map or see hidden figures in a drawing).

Note: My mother-tongue is not english.

If that test's any indication, I can't be trusted to flip burgers at McDs.

Yea, it wont work for me either

[Syrch]

how does that est yoru true intelligence?

 

[Majesty]

The true question is: How do you test your true intelligence? Period.

There're so many variants to intelligence. For instance, Kim Peek knows 9000 or so books by heart.

I stick by my original statement.

Glancing at this test I would get maybe a 15 or 16 out of 33 with no chance of getting about 5 or 6 of them, simply because they are expressions I have never heard off. like 15M on a DMC.......

There are far better ways to test for verbal ability and linguistic pattern recognition.

 

[Evadman]

This test is based on knowlege, which is not required for inteligence.

 

[conehead433]

yes

 

[eits]

i got 28/30 on the mensa fun test. i screwed up on question 6 and accidentally skipped over question 12.

that was fun i enjoy those

 

[Acanthus]

This in no way measures intelligence, its mostly cultrual crap.

Some of the sayings given as answers i would have no way of knowing, like references to the old or new testament.
