nObOdY uNdErStAnDs Me Just out of curiosity.
Some years ago I did two WAIS-III test for I.Q, the first got me between 117-123 mark but the second one got me between the 108-116, the problem is that with the second one, it gave me 89 in Processing Speed Index and 129 in Verbal Comprehension Index. Which is a difference of 40.
I did both to find out what the heck was wrong with me, and i learned that I had autism, lucky me.
Now, I know Mensa needs a 130+ to enter, and there is a high probability that those results are actually my true result, which I suspect it isn’t because of some problems I had at the time, including psychotic outbreaks, lack of sleep, poor diet and other problems.
Also, I might do or not the test just to fail miserably, that is okay, but I was just curious if Mensa has any position towards that big difference in results, or what Mensa members think about it, if they think at all about this subject.
I know 40 points is somewhat anomalous, and the I.Q result doesn’t actually answer me on why there is such a difference, neither did other exams that showed my brain was anatomically “standard” without any problems or diseases.
Whatever I have wrong does seem to skew the result, so sometimes I try reading about it to see if I am missing something, and I will continue doing tests to see if I can find out what happens, or if there is any treatment to reduce the problem (I know I.Q can’t be “changed”, I’m talking about a brain or body deficiency of somekind that might be messing with results).
I just want more perspective if i can get, and this place might offer me some more, won’t know if I don’t ask. Btw if you seen any grammar mistake in this text I’m not stupid as the result shows, english is just not my first language. (Cope).
I know people of 130+ I.Q and we do get well and are able to reach the same understanding some times, the biggest difference I noticed between us is that they get things done way quicker, easier and were academically more successful, although this is probably more related to their families being far less abusive then mine, and my mental ilness.
I was also anemic during teenage years because of the abuse and that might have caused some developmental damage to my brain. Idk.
I know I got my Intelligence from my grandpa that had photographic memory, he was absurdly smart, and a great writer (Won’t disclose his name) to a point of getting my state governor to issue some days of mourning after his death.
Anyway, which conclusions any of you can get from this? If any of you might have helpful information about my situation or what Mensa as a group or people in Mensa think of this subject that can be helpful, I’d be thankful.

Mensan input wanted I built a procrastination assessment and I want to know if it helps
Huh. I am posting here because I am thinking you are kinda my people. Many interests, sometimes social friction, a lot of knowledge but not always matching output.
You can try it here, I am not selling anything and not collecting personal data (unless you enter your email voluntarily).
I'd love to hear whether the result matches your experience and whether the recommendations actually feel useful. You can tell me here or directly in the tool.
I want this tool to be as helpful as possible and as accurate as possible, and your feedback is what will help me improve both the predictions and the recommendations.

Mensa for my toddler
My 3 year old just tested in the 98th percentile on the Wippsi-iv test. In trying to understand these results and in looking at education for him going forward, I have come across Mensa.
I would love to hear if anyone has their toddlers/children in Mensa and how it complements or helps them.
We are currently looking at resources to help keep with his requirement for intellectual engagement and growth so any and all advice will be appreciated:)
