GIQTest – IQ Test Journal

October 20, 2007 is the American National Testing Day for Mensa with testing sites available throughout the country and abroad.  Mensa is an International High IQ Society available to anyone in the top 2% of IQ scores.  While Mensa will take outside IQ tests, it often uses its own testing to determine who gets into the society and who doesn’t.  Mensa testing day offers a broad invitation to as many people as possible to come and take the test.  Mensa estimates that many more people qualify for Mensa than are actually in the society. According to the American Mensa Society, those who pass in the upper 2% of the world’s population on October 20^th will be invited to join the society which is a social organization. Members receive several newsletters during the course of the year and will be invited to Mensa meetings of several types, including “themed” get togethers, national meetings and state meetings. Mensa has more than 100,000 worldwide members on nearly every continent.  It’s a way for members to socialize with stimulating individuals and to form friendships with those who share their high intelligence.  For those who miss Mensa Testing Day, the tests are offered several times per year and various locations.
