Qualify With Prior Test Scores
Not sure you need to test? You may already qualify. Mensa accepts qualifying scores from roughly 150 standardized tests, and nearly two-thirds of members join this way — no Mensa test required. Scores can come from testing done at school, college, or in the military, at any point in your life.
A few commonly accepted tests and their qualifying scores:
- SAT — 1300 (before 9/30/1974) or 1250 (9/30/1974–1/31/1994)
- GRE — 1250 verbal + quantitative (before 5/1994)
- LSAT — 95th percentile (after 1982)
- Stanford-Binet — IQ 132; Wechsler (WAIS/WISC) — Full-Scale IQ 130
- Cognitive Abilities Test (CogAT) — composite SAS 132
Documentation must be an original or notarized copy from the school, psychologist, or military that administered the test. To submit, email MensaAdmissions@AmericanMensa.org.
