They gave me a IQ test at my school 2 years ago. It was done by paper.

http://www.mensa.org/index0.php?page=12 Try this link it's a sample test for Mensa. Mensa's requirement is top 2% not a set score.

The term "IQ score" is widely used but poorly defined. There are a large number of tests with different scales. The result on one test of 132 can be the same as a score 148 on another test. Some intelligence tests don't use IQ scores at all. Mensa has set a percentile as cutoff to avoid this confusion. Candidates for membership in Mensa must achieve a score at or above the 98th percentile (a score that is greater than or equal to 98 percent of the general population taking the test) on a standard test of intelligence.

Generally, there are two ways to prove that you qualify for Mensa: either take the Mensa test, or submit a qualifying test score from another test. There are a large number of intelligence tests that are "approved". More information on whether a test you have taken is approved, as well as information on the procedure for taking the Mensa test, can be obtained from the nearest Mensa office. There are no on-line tests that can be used for admission to Mensa. Feel free to contact Mensa for specific details about eligibility.
If your school did testing, write to the school you attended, and ask for a CERTIFIED copy of your score. It must include your birth date, the name of the test, and a clearly defined number, i.e., IQ, or percentile rank nationally. Mensa does not accept achievement tests. The school seal must be stamped on the report.

My I.Q. is 140, as determined by the California Mental Maturity test, one of the most highly regarded standards in the industry.
I qualified for Mensa, which requires you to be in the top 2% I.Q. range, and mine fell within the top 1%.

I.Q. (intellegence quotient) is determine by dividing your mental age by your chronological age. In other words, if a ten year old were operating at the same intellectual pace as a twenty year old, they would have an I.Q. of 200. It is a tool, and a measure of potential ability, which may or may not be used. I've only found one real value; and that is to use my mental powers to lift up my fellow man. Nothing aggravates me more than to see someone misuse this gift to intimidate others or make them feel small.

With an I.Q of 125, you are very intelligent; but it's how you use it that will, to a great degree, determine the quality of your life.

127. I was only tested once. But as I was taking the test, I was critical of it because the questions cover a very small area of everything I use my intelligence for. I think careful observation and conversation are better for assessing brain power.

Unknown. But who told you? You shouldn't know, besides they have been entirely discredited. Mensa requires...what 128-135 or so? They are nothing but nerds and snobs. You should celebrate.

> 135

I'm a plasma physicist, well at least one in training ;)

Has to be 120+, 130 is two sigmas out from the median, so only around .5% of the population lies there(an other .5 below 65, so 1% total outside of two sigmas)
