I got...
"Your score: 61%!

You took the "British Mensa's Online Workout" quiz and were awarded 11/18 marks

A good effort, with a little more practice you could achieve a high IQ score if you took a Mensa Supervised IQ test."

Give it a go :smile: http://www.mensa.org.uk/workout


18/18.. helps to be a maths student and Countdown fanatic. But the questions don't seem Mensa level.

:lol: What can I say? It is what is on their website. You should take the test :smile:
17/18. Would have been nice to see which one I got wrong, but hey-ho! With KDB above, working in a field that is exclusively computing + maths makes this quite straight forward. Can't see how this is close to Mensa level. It was what I'd expect on an online test applying for a grad job.
I got 2 questions wrong

Do you recall the answer for the last number sequence?

I think it went like this: 36 | 24 | 16 | ? | 6 | 4 |

@Revolver72 what was your answer?

I got 10, that would be correct. The first difference is 12, then 10, then 8, then 6, then 4, then 2. So 6 subtracted from 16 would obviously be 10. So that was right, 100% :smile:

And yes, the correct sequence was
46 | 34 | 24 | 16 | [10] | 6 | 4
