Do you have what it takes to be a member of Mensa?

Take our quiz consisting of Mensa sample questions to find out.

Mensa was founded in England in 1946 with the idea of forming a society for bright people, with a high IQ the only qualification for membership.

The society welcomes members whose IQ is in the top 2% of the population. The word “mensa” is Latin for “table”, chosen because all members are equal at a round table.

There are about 20,000 members of British Mensa and more than 120,000 worldwide. The youngest member of British Mensa is three years old.

To become a member, applicants must take a Mensa Supervised IQ Test.

The Mensa quiz below is just for fun and not an IQ test, and your score is not an accurate IQ score. The questions, however, are similar in style to those which are likely to be included in an accredited IQ test.
