Give it a try! Take the test and post up your results:

MENSA's test of smarts (http://www.mensa.org/workout2.html?)

It took me 22 minutes, I got 27/30. I missed 7, 14, 17.

As the great Homer Simpson once said, "I am so smart! I am so smart! S. M. R. T. I mean, S. M. A! R. T." Actualy he sang it, but you get the idea!

LUCK!

Worse, he (or is that I) lit his living room on fire!!

I hate those kind of tests. While I flatter myself to be as smart as the next underappreciated genius, it doesnt always show up on those things....sigh....and I really wanted to be a MENSA member too. You can meet really hot women!

Will try it when I get a chance. Thanks for the link.

Ah, Lifino, what have you done to me, I feel so stupid now. :(

I only got 20 out of 30, although I admit I was rushing. (excuses, excuses...)

Ahhh. Keep yer panties on babe.;) :p No need to rush.

Not a bad score! Some of the word questions a extra hard, or at least those are the ones that took me the longest.

At least you took the time!

Yup, I'm afraid so - Lifino, that one really was a little too close to the edge!

25. Missed 15, 19, 25, 26 and one of the very last ones - didn't write it down though.

I looked at a few wrong answers and went D'Oh

I got 23,
it said it was a good score and that I'd have a good chance of passing the mensa test. These people will let anyone in if they would let me in :D :D
I no longer respect mensa,j/k

btw the things I had wrong were the words I couldn't be bothered to unscramble and some math ones( but math was never my strong suit )
