Is 140 a good MENSA IQ test score?

Question

I'm 16, i heard other people recommending it, so i took it and got 140.

i don't know if it is even reliable,please could you help.

Answer 1

140 is the minimum for genius, lol i usually get around 140 too(hooray for us?) but if you took it online (sadly i did) it is a lot less accurate than if you took it in person, and i get anywhere from 132 to 146 so i suppose im smart...? but there is so much to the human mind that you simply can not tag it with an IQ and say if it is worthy or not

Answer 2

I'm not sure about the scoring, but I do know that if you took a Mensa test, you must be really intelligent!  I would say try looking on their website...  Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

  

Answer 3

The test must be reliable. If your score is accurate you may be eligible to join MENSA. It will also depend on the type of test you took.

Answer 4

That's funny, when I took the MENSA website test it gave a score of questions you got right out of 30, not an actual IQ number.  Was this the website test or a official, in-person, proctored exam?

If it was an online version, well, to tell you if it's reliable - MENSA doesn't accept online scores, even on their own tests, to get into the organization, so that should tell you something.
