The Daily PollIRELAND HAS A pretty high number of Mensa members per capita.
Mensans are not all well-paid high-flyers, in fact, some are unemployed, so your job and social standing don’t matter, only your IQ.
Membership of Mensa is open to people who have attained “a score within the upper two percent of the general population on an approved intelligence test”.
But, what do you think? Could you make it in? Would you be running the place in a week? What’s your own view of your IQ?
To test yourself, here’s a workout.
We’re asking: Could you make it in to Mensa?

Not to be a spoil sport but- I was always told it’s illegal to collect frogspawn?
@Kevin Hill: me also
@Colin Keogh: for educational purposes its aloud as far as I know
@Kevin Hill: It is here but schools are allowed for educational purposes. This was in NI.
@Kevin Hill: they were on ground that was drying so were going to die. Did the same myself in early march and have a few thousand tadpoles in a pond which I’ll be releasing as soon as they are frogs. Could have been famous too!
@Kevin Hill: ah whisht you
She’s delightful ! At least she didn’t waste her COVID months in and out of the off license unlike some …ahem
Illegal… Jesus every child the far side of the red cow collected tadpoles as a kid, and caught bees in a jam jar.
Jesus I’ve been doing this for years, because frogs return to the same spot every year to spawn so they generally spawn in drainage ditches near us which end up drying up. So we collect them, rear them and release them in a nature reserve near us also. Never thought to put it on the internet. Guess I missed my five minutes of fame.
The world we live in now everything is a sensation.
That’s more than a jar of frogspawn, I hope they will be released eventually
