Q: ONLINE IQ TESTS - I did one online that says 'Mensa Approved'. Do you accept these results?
A: Mensa South Africa is aware of several websites claiming to offer online 'Mensa IQ tests'. Online IQ tests can be a lot of fun to do and, in some cases, the results can be highly accurate. However, these websites are operating without approval from Mensa and are in direct breach of Mensa's trademark. Where the society is able to locate the website owners, it is instructing them to remove any reference to Mensa. More importantly, Mensa is concerned that members of the public may be misled into thinking they are taking an official Mensa Supervised IQ Test. Mensa South Africa does not currently operate an online IQ test and does not accept online test results as evidence for membership to the society. Membership of Mensa is open to anyone who has an IQ score in the top two per cent of the population, measured by a recognised IQ test. This can be through prior evidence of testing, a psychologist's report, or by taking part in a Mensa Supervised IQ Test session.
