How can I join Mensa?


Mensa, the high-IQ society, is open to anyone who scores in the top two percent on any of a number of standardized tests that measure intelligence, including not only ordinary intelligence tests (e.g., Stanford-Binet, Weschler, Cattell), but also such tests as the SATs, the GREs, the armed services' GCTs, etc.

There are two ways to join Mensa: You can send American Mensa, Ltd. evidence that you have already qualified, or you can take a Mensa-proctored intelligence test. Unfortunately, due to a change in California law in the 1990s, AML is no longer allowed to release IQ scores to test-takers; the Mensa-proctored test is pass/fail only.

For information about joining Tampa Bay Mensa, send e-mail to our Local Secretary, Maxine Kushner.

Not sure whether you already qualify? American Mensa has a list of tests and test scores accepted by Mensa on its web site. There is also information on how to join based on your prior evidence. Click here to be transported.
