Hi,

Out of Curiosity. Does anyone know what IQ you would have if you get 99% on
a Cattel 3 Fair-scale MENSA test, at 19yo?

I think it's above 160, but not sure. I'm interested in knowing

Hawaii question:

Easy. You take their money. Take them to Hawaii and leave them there. You
save on food, water and accomodation and have a nice quiet trip back,
counting all your money. :]

May I suggest you contact your local chapter of Mensa?

They use a whole SLEW of equivalency scales in addition to their own
professionally-supervised testing; folks join allatime by submitting
their scores from academic aptitude tests (as I did), military
service aptitude batteries (as my husband did), and the like.

Here is the URL from the worldwide Mensa site; proceed from here to
get contact info for your local chapter.

GOOD LUCK!!!!! -- spike

p.s. For anyone interested, ORION's Director of Pyschometrics and
Intelligence is a professional psychometrician and Chief Testing
Officer for Mensa South Africa. He has vetted for us a number of
online/interactive measures which provide decent first approximations
for folks wondering whether ornot it is worth their time and money to
be professionaly tested. One of his favorites is www.brain.com, which
offers both a 5-minute and a 12-minute test free of charge. Hey, what
have you got to lose but 5 (or 12) minutes?...and you just might be
pleasantly surprised at your results :)

Just don't join the Mensa newsgroup which has been taken over by
white supremists. The subject matter and sophistication of the
topics and discussion quickly bely the absense of Mensa members. Be
forewarned.
