We're glad you're here!
St. Louis Area Mensa (SLAM) is an official local group of American Mensa, Ltd., "The High IQ Society." We encompass Eastern Missouri and Southern Illinois.
American Mensa, Ltd., is an international society of people who score at or above the 98th percentile on any of several standardized tests. American Mensa has more than 50,000 members, and, worldwide, Mensa International has over 100,000 members in more than 40 countries. St. Louis Area Mensa has approximately 700 members.
The purposes of Mensa are: (1) to identify and foster human intelligence for the benefit of humanity; (2) to encourage research on the nature, characteristics and uses of intelligence; and (3) to provide a stimulating intellectual and social environment for its members.
No two Mensans think alike, but they usually think a lot and are often more than happy to proclaim their thoughts! Mensans' opinions cover the spectrum on politics, religion, and philosophy, and there are Special Interest Groups (SIGs) dedicated to expression and discussion of many of these various opinions. Mensa itself does not have any official opinions or stands on any political, religious, philosophical or social issue. In keeping with this, opinions expressed on this St. Louis Area Mensa web site are those of individual members, not those of St. Louis Area Mensa or American Mensa.

Many tests that you may have already taken are acceptable for admission to Mensa. Although everything is subject to change, American Mensa has posted some acceptable prior-evidence scores. If you are interested in testing through Mensa, contact us.
