Delightful on-the-go mental stimulation, a good mix of multiple types of intelligence challenges.

Nice presentation of the test, but could be so much more. Anger set of sample questions and explanation of results, possibly even grow into a brain training program. More importantly, how can it better support Mensa mission/goal and membership?
Many of their word comparisons use inaccurate synonyms or antonyms of words, the number problems are predominantly based on finding one possible pattern out of several (and hoping you are fortunate enough to stumble onto theirs sooner than later), and based on familiarity and rote memorization far more than intelligence, If you have a high IQ, the fallacies are quite clear.
Im just amazed at the pointlessness and total lack of applicability to any real world work that this has. A bit disappointed.
Well worth the money, time and effort.
Fun puzzles. Wish they provided explanations on the tests to allow you to figure out some of the tougher questions.
I knew I was a genius, now I can prove it! :-p
Its meant to challenge the mind.
Id like to have explanations for the test questions and a basic analysis of my intelligence. I also would like a little more variation witht the Training questions.
I need answers/explanations!
I also like knowing that the questions were prepared by the respected Mensa group.
Got a 146 i wonder how accurate that is.. Great use of some spare time!
Wish it had more questions so that the test wouldnt become repetitive
The app is good and worth getting but there are some aggravating features about it. 1. Practice test repeated same question very very often. 2. Because of number 1 it makes you want to just practice with real tests but the real tests offer no summary like the practice tests do. So you have no way to find out which questions you got wrong and no "why" button so you can learn what you did wrong. Because of the above the app ends up being less useful than I was hoping. Hope they can adjust these problems.
The 20, 40, and 60 question tests need to reveal what problems were answered wrong and how to arrive at the correct answer. Without this, as another reviewer stated, the app loses attractiveness and you lose patience in using it. Why not strengthen the world and help your users learn something? Otherwise, the app is stuck a three stars.
Answers to what I got wrong would be nice. However, then they would have to add more questions.....
I hope they continue development with new content. It called me a bright spark <3
I should mention something to those who criticize this as "not a valid IQ test." Youre right, and its not meant to be. Its meant to be a fun logic puzzle game, which allows you to practice verbal, spatial, and quantitative reasoning in a way that does not give anyone an unfair advantage when actually taking an official IQ test, such as the Mensa entrance test. This is why they call it "brain test," rather than "IQ test." Just have fun trying to figure everything out, and see how high up on the score board you can get. Try to find new efficient methods to solve problems that you already know the answers to if you figure everything out (btw, it is incredibly time consuming to figure out every answer, so that is a challenge, in and of itself.) Just have fun, and always take an imperfect score as a positive experience, as it allows you to discover new ways to improve your logical reasoning.
OUTSTANDING App!!!! I will buy any educational app you develop. This app is PERFECTION And has become my very favorite app (and I have a 128-GB iPad filled with apps). Thank you!!! I am learning a ton!!!!
Fantastic!
