Mensa is known as the world’s largest, oldest and most famous members-only club for the super smart. A high IQ society made up of around 150,000 highly intelligent people. Only 2% of the global population. They have branches on every continent except for Antarctica.” One of their famous members is Hollywood actress, Geena Davis.
We asked Brown to define intelligence. “At its most basic level, being intelligent just means you can learn or understand things more easily and solve problems more quickly than others,” said Brown. “Generally, someone is born with high intelligence. That intelligence can be nurtured so that it manifests itself in ways that people commonly associate with high intelligence, but you still shouldn’t confuse intelligence with book smarts. Those two things are not mutually inclusive or exclusive.”

Mensa only accepts super smart people, so we wanted to know how we could get in. “Candidates must first qualify for membership before they can join,” Brown told Bored Panda. “In American Mensa, they do this in one of two ways. The first is by submitting proof that they have taken a qualifying exam in the past and scored in the top 2% of the general population. The second is by sitting for our exam and scoring in the top 2%.”
