About High IQ
It is quite difficult to identify a single prevailing characteristic of Mensa members other than high IQ.
For some members, Mensa provides a sense of belonging, and others for it is a casual social activity.
Many matches and marriages have been made in Mensa, but for many, it is simply a stimulating opportunity for the mind. Most Mensans have a good sense of humor, and they like to talk. And, usually, they have a lot to say.
Mensa members range in age from 2 to over 100, but most are between 20 and 60.
Their education ranges from preschoolers to high school dropouts to some with multiple doctorates.
When it comes to occupations, the range is staggering. Mensa has professors and truck drivers, scientists and firefighters, computer programmers and farmers, artists, military people, musicians, labourers, police officers, glassblowers — the diverse list goes on and on.
Mensa South Africa has chapters in Gauteng (Johannesburg and Pretoria), Western Cape (Cape Town and Winelands), and KwaZulu-Natal.
Chapters run monthly speaker events, social gatherings, and arrange interesting and unusual activities.
Whatever your interests are, you will be sure to find like-minded individuals from within our interesting and varied membership!
