Mensa Singapore conducts the Mensa Singapore Admissions Test for persons aged 14 and above to see if he or she qualifies for membership. The MSAT is interesting and challenging as it involves only symbols and pictorial representations, and does not require knowledge of any particular language or mathematics. Candidates cannot practice for this test, nor can he or she improve their result by taking the same test repeatedly. However, you can try several sample test questions of the MSAT here at the Mensa Singapore website. Mensa Singapore treats the test procedures and all results to be private and confidential. Candidates can expect to receive their results, expressed in percentiles, within 3 to 8 weeks.

If your child is below 14 years old, you need to bring your child to any qualified Psychologist for a WISC-R test. Upon receiving of your report from the psychologist, kindly forward it to Mensa Singapore. The testing officer will view the report, whether the result meets Mensa criteria and will revert to the parent. This is how Mensa Singapore accept younger children to join the society.

Information about fees, testing schedules and availability are available at Mensa Singapore’s website, as well as directly from the Mensa Singapore office. At this present time, the MSAT is conducted monthly at Suntec City in the city center and costs S$55 per person. Special testing sessions at special rates are conducted several times a year at the National University of Singapore, Nanyang Technological University and Singapore Management University for their students.

Important notes about the MSAT:

• This test is to be used solely for qualification for membership in Mensa Singapore and should not be used for any other purpose.
• Mensa uses a percentile as cutoff for membership to avoid confusion due to different numerical scores from different tests. Therefore, your results will be presented as a percentage and not a numerical score.
• You cannot practice for this test nor can you improve your result by taking this same test repeatedly. Candidates are not allowed to take this test more than once within a 12-month period.
• If your result is within the top 2% of the general population, you will be invited to join Mensa Singapore. Some of our local activities are listed in the information sheet given to you today. Your proctors and testing officers are also able to tell you more about Mensa.
