I got 30 before I googled the last 3. I really must be a genius then according to the site.
32 out of 33. What is that last one on about? Never heard of that before!
I think they have pretty low standards if only getting 6 of those makes you āsomewhat intelligentā. :loco:
Two to go. I think that last one comes from an old sea shanty.
Iām sure Iāve got 28 correct but it doesnāt seem to want to know.
The only one I canāt get is number 15. It looks like it should be easy, probably going to keep me up at night.
15 is one of the easiest ones
I gave up when i got to genius levelā¦ i mean why waste timeā¦ i am clearly a genius.
I did these already when I was in a gifted program in elementary schoolā¦ these things are old hat. I already knew most of them, but they didnāt include some of the ones that I also knewā¦
Hereās some more for you (no Googling!):
216 B in a HA
28 D in F
3 BM (SHTR) <-- my personal favorite of these.
88 K on a P
2 of E A on N A
6 G (plus K) in an ES
9 P in the SS
6 K in the BB
100 Z in a G
8 L on a S
2 D in a S (and 3 D in a C)
4 P in a HG
6 P in a TD
4 S in a D of C
3 S and A on a T
13 Y of BL
13 C in a BD
4 B to a M in CT
I got twoā¦then got stuck at 7 W in a W. (not kidding)
Anyone get less than two? I thought not. I rule. (kidding)
Genius isnāt that smart anyway. You only need an I.Q. over 130ā¦or so to be a āgeniusāā¦Iām one as well by the way (136).
Hereās another one: 1 D in an A (normally)
Iāve always wanted to take a Mensa test. With they had a center here (maybe Iāll go to Hong Kong.) Iād be fun to pull out a certified genius card sometimes.
You can find sample Mensa tests on the Mensa site (and the country sites.)
There are supposed to be 7 seperate areas in which a brain can specialize. Hence, you could be a genius in oneā¦and below average in another.
In school I was amazing at mathā¦but I donāt understand Taiwanese grade 6 math.
Other than that, I picked up Chinese quicker than anyone Iāve ever metā¦or heard of. (lots of peopleās Chinese is better than mine nowā¦Iām refering to when Iād only been here a year and was fairly fluent with only 16hrs of classes).
But I still only got 2 correct answers on that testā¦Iām guessing it uses a different area of the brain than language retention and math :s .
Letās see, I just got that number 15 within seconds of looking at the page. So thatās all of them. I see my earlir post was Tue Feb 14, 2006 9:14 pm and itās now about that time again on a Monday night so itās taken me roughly 13 days. There wasnāt a time limit was there?
A slow genius perhaps.

I think that was one of my first posts on forumosa like 4 years ago, about finding someone to administer an IQ test to get into Mensa. Now I think my brainās so fried by living here, Iād be lucky to be accepted into a kindergarten class.
31/33
I had to google numbers 28 & 30 (though the latter answer crossed my mind, without stopping).
Why would one want to be a Mensa member? If people know you are a Mensa member then they usually think youāre some kind of weirdo or something.
No idea. Personally, Iām just killing time on a rainy day.
(My aunt is a Mensa member and sheās very weird)
Certified weirdo
Not sure really, was something I heard about a LOOOONNGG time ago and always wanted to do. Just another thing to cross off the list I guess.
