OT. 162 IQ

[Dean Hoffman]

A British kid's IQ score puts him up in the range of Steven Hawking and maybe Einstein. He has autism so it would be a mixed blessing.

afaik I've only met one Mensa member in my life; she was attending an AA meeting.

[micky]

That's nothing. My IQ is 212.

Or maybe that's something about water?

[Cindy Hamilton]

Meh. Mensa is for poseurs. They require only a Stanford-Binet score of

132.

[Wade Garrett]

Actually, any documented reputable well standardized intelligence test score in top two percent- generally at or above 130. The S-B is just for young folks less than age 24.

My wife is 165 for something higher as they could not test higher. She is a treasure.

Ha! And she can also smell trout in the water.

I am, ahem, eligible, based on one IQ test, plus the LSAT and SATs, which I think they count. I went to a meeting with my supervisor who was a member and didn't particularly enjoy the meeting. I think it was boring. I think that I'm not an intellectual. Or I wouldn't have read home.repair when it was about home repair.

ONe time I went to an Overeaters Anonymous meeting and spent the first half waiting for refreshements at the break. There were none. I didn't go back.
