What is the IQ standard of Mensa International?
If you want to join the club, you must pass the Mensa test provided by the club to prove that the applicant's IQ is the highest 2% of the local population. In addition, Mensa's branches in some countries also accept IQ tests provided by institutions accepted by applicants. The association emphasizes that besides IQ, race, color, religion, occupation and other factors will not affect the application for membership. Although the association refuses to publish the specific scoring method and qualified score of the Mensa test, it is estimated that the minimum membership score of the Hong Kong branch is about 140.

What is Mensa?

Mensa is translated from Latin "Mensa". Mensa is the name of the top IQ club in the world. It was founded in Oxford, England on 1946, and was co-founded by lawyer Beril and scientist Weil. They plan to set up a club for smart people, so that participants' high IQ can be recognized, affirmed and constantly improved through challenging club activities, and share each other's success.

Why did you choose the word Mensa to represent us?

Mensa means "table" in Latin, which means that Mensa is an equal round-table society, and there is no difference in status here. In this club, all race, color, dogma, nationality, age, political education and social background are irrelevant.
