<p>Mensa no longer accepts SAT scores (post 94) due to the fact that studying for that test has become an extracurricular in and of itself for many students. Bill, youre correct. If they still accepted 1300+, it wouldnt be hard to qualify. I qualified by a required IQ test taken when I had to switch schools in second grade. </p>
<p>Including it on the app is somewhat of an afterthought. Im not applying to very top colleges in the traditional sense. I hope to attend art school, and they dont require their applicants to hit numbers. I have had an encouraging portfolio review with one of my favorite schools. I just thought I would list it because it is one of the ways I spend my free time. I guess it might be more of a hobby. I do not speak at conferences : ) Its simply an enjoyable way to make older friends with the same interests. </p>
<p>I agree that it isnt what a person has between the ears, but what they do with it that counts. The schools I am interested in value creativity, not dry scores. Portfolios impress, not numbers. </p>
<p>Northstarmom, you made me giggle. IQ as an accident of birth. Sounds like a defect. Sometimes it feels like one! I see your point though. Listing it is somewhat like listing my hair color. </p>
<p>Thank you for the quick responses. Im glad this board exists, because Im not sure who to ask!</p>
