As far as I'm concerned, you fail the mensa test the minute you start paying them to say you're clever ;)

Memory is not a very strong indicator of intelligence, and that is the main limiter in this test. When it comes to verbal/linguistic pattern recognition, you need to have remebered the word/ratio/whatever to be able to use it, and just because you can rember it doesn't mean you can't apply it.

A great example is the bible one, this question isn't fair at all to anyone not a devout christian.

also: 1000 Y in a M does not except 1000 Years in a millenium, wtf.
edit2: ok so google spell check lied to me, two 'n's

Yeah, this test is really culturally biased..

I mean, did they really have to put THREE questions about the bible?
