Mensa Testing in March

We currently have the following test session scheduled in this area.

Saturday, March 25th, 2023, at 10:00 am

Lenexa City Center Library
Johnson County Library
8778 Penrose Lane
Lenexa, KS

The test session will be held in conference room number 3. The fee for testing is $60. Please arrive 10 or 15 minutes early to fill out a registration form. Here is a link to the location description and map on the library website:

https://www.jocolibrary.org/locations/lenexa

Please do call or email me to reserve your place for testing. Seating is limited, so you must have a reservation with me to attend this session. If this session is not convenient, please let me know so I can inform you of future test dates or arrange a testing date to fit your schedule.

The standard tests administered are the Wonderlic Personnel Test and the Reynolds Adaptable Intelligence Test. A score at or above the 98th percentile on either test qualifies you for Mensa membership. Calculators and other mechanical devices are not permitted. Please be advised that if you have taken either of these tests before with the Mensa organization you may not take them again. Candidates under 14 years of age should contact me for additional information as these tests are not calibrated for that younger age range. A parent’s signature is required if you are under the age of 18.

You will need a photo ID, including birth date. Smoking is not allowed in the library. Drinks in closed containers are allowed. If you wish to pre-purchase a testing voucher you may do so at the link below:

If you have questions that I have not addressed, or if you would like to arrange to take the test at a different time, please drop me an email or give me a call. I will be glad to help.

If you would like to gain a better understanding of the testing process before you commit to the full test, you might like to try the Mensa Practice Test. You can take the test online through the American Mensa website at: https://www.us.mensa.org/join/mht/.

It is also possible to qualify for Mensa membership by submitting evidence from previously admitted qualifying tests. If you would like more information regarding the test scores accepted and the process for qualifying in this way, follow the directions at this link:

$1 Mensa Practice Test

$1 Mensa Practice Test

It is often stated that intelligence is simply defined as ‘the ability of a person to adapt to change’. If this is so for you (at a high level), then you may want to learn more about joining up with a high IQ society like American Mensa and Mid-America Mensa. Do you think you have what it takes to belong where brilliance belongs and especially here in the heart of America?

Do you know that there are often discounts on American Mensa’s practice test, our Local Group (LG) testing, and even the Prior Evidence review by American Mensa? During the entire month of January, 2023, for example, American Mensa is offering a $1 Mensa Practice Test as a month-long promotion for candidate lead generation. [Note: Head on over to Take the Online Mensa Practice Test and then click on Purchase Practice Test.] Leveraging this is a great way for Mid-America Mensa to grow our local group’s prospect pool and eventually convert would-be members to members through immediacy and additional financial incentive. Besides a national promotions calendar of the year’s scheduled promotions, please note that there may be unplanned flash promotions throughout the year based on external causes and/or opportunities.

If you think you are interested in and might be qualified for admission to Mensa, would you accept this offer and opportunity? Are you Mensa material?

RSVPs are appreciated. Happy Holidays!

In November, Viona’s Italian Bistro was very popular. In December, we’re going to Blue Springs as requested by folks who live in eastern Jackson County. Tokyo Grill & Sushi does not take reservations so plan to arrive somewhat early so we can pull some tables together.

Cabin Fever Planning Meeting
Saturday, December 17th, 2:00 pm
At a private residence.

Is this a Cabin Fever Planning Meeting disguised as a Christmas Cookie Exchange? Or is it a Cookie Exchange disguised as a Cabin Fever meeting? However you may see it, bring Christmas Cookies to exchange and share a little seasonal cheer with us. There were 11 people at the November 15th Planning Meeting and there may be more this time, so plan your baking accordingly. If you don’t bake, come along anyway. This will still be a working meeting and by December 17th Cabin Fever is less than two months away.

Mensa Scholarship Judges Needed!

We’re looking forward to another fun and rewarding judging season for Mensa scholarships. Please see the full list of the many types of scholarships available. The number and dollar amount of the Mensa Foundation Scholarships are growing every year. It’s very exciting to be associated with the program. MAM local group scholarship judging for the coming year will be conducted solely online. If you were a judge last year, I will be contacting you and urging you to repeat! If you have never judged before, please let me know that you want to get involved. We need and value your contribution. Judging will take place from January 16th to February 15th, 2023. As in previous years there will be two separate rounds of judging, so we should be able to fit your schedule. If you would like to be included in scholarship judging, have questions, or just need some more information, please contact Rhonda Johnston at (913) 671-8736 or [email protected].
