Mensa - Lets Get It Straight......
111 Answers
On this thread people who would never get into Mensa seem to claim they could but didn't because it has annual subs:
https:/
Mensa is a club the subs are not just for "bragging rights" you can be as involved as little or as much as you want. We have SIGs gatherings, Mensans are like masons we can look each other up in foreign countries, different towns. Often get free accommodation. There are social events every month all over the world, there are 50+ in my region alone in January. Many of you are in other clubs that pay subs you may have similar benefits or just are happy with what your club does. I get tired of people who could not get in if they tried, posting bile about what is basically just another club. PS the monthly magazine alone is worth the subs.

eg from Mozz: "//I did some Mensa tests through my work but never joined.//
I did the same. Then I saw the entry fee and wondered why anyone who consider themselves intelligent would waste money on such a thing. "
Wolf: "If you have to pay to join then I'm oot. "
Wolf: "I did some Mensa tests through my work but never joined. I had a reasonably high IQ (180) at the time, my brain would self combust trying one now! " - Einstien level, Right oh!

Barry1010 @ 0955; "I believe anyone can be a guest member without doing the Mensa test - just pay a few quid every year."
Bit like taking the train up Snowdon then buying postcards saying "I climbed Snowdon."
Whilst in the JLRRA, a group of us boy soldiers climbed Snowdon only to see groups of tourists - mainly obese Yanks - doing exactly that. Our Sergeant told us that if any of us laughed, we'd be peeling spuds for a fortnight :-))
