Brains on box boost for Mensa

One of the entry routes into the society is taking one of its supervised 1Q tests, with those scoring in the top 2% offered membership.

The number of people who had a go at it between January 29 and February 6 was up 37% on the previous year.

An IQ test is designed to measure human cognitive abilities, including logical reasoning, problem-solving, memory and spatial recognition.

The average person will score between 90-109 but to join British Mensa you need to register 132 or more.
