This is way off topic, but:

Mensa does proper IQ tests. The problem is that there are (at least) three different scales, and that the average has gone up slightly over the years. The criteria for getting in is to be tested to be in the top 2 percent in any acceptable test.

I did the mensa specific test. I got a piece of paper saying how many questions I got right and what this meant in IQ score according to some scale. It didn't say my percentile, but I assume it's 98'th or better since I got in. Wink

Short story: They measure IQ points, but since there are different scales, the definition of getting in is to be in the top 2 percentl.

<..offtopic..>

I didn't mean to say Mensa didn't do proper IQ tests, just that they don't (directly) 'rate' you that way, as you said.

The percentile won't change, as a 98th percentile means that you belong to the top 2% of the world, regardless of absolute IQ score (which indeed slowly increases, due to experience in IQ-tests, me thinks).

IIRC:
98th p = IQ of 132+
99th p = IQ of 144+

So you're probably 99th p Smiley

On the other hand, education levels are declining.

I'm still trying to find a way to make this dual ego-trip seem like it is an honest ontopic post... Huh

Sorry, I didn't mean to ridicule. I just got thrown off by the mention of a mensa scale. =D

None taken Smiley

What I kind of meant with that text was that AI should be little bit smarter than idiot who is not cabable to find ass or f**k inside a string "afeafwassgkoegojef**k" or so. Luckily I do not need to explain this anymore because of your high IQ Cheesy

Speak to me like you would speak to a vegetable and I may understand what you say.
