Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, saying in an interview with Forbes magazine published Tuesday that if Tillerson did call him amoron, as reported, the two should “compare IQ tests.”  \nBy Matt Rocheleau  \nGLOBE STAFF OCTOBER 10, 2017  \nPresident Trump challenged his secretary of state to an IQ test on Tuesday, and the big brains at Mensa are ready to help.  \nThe high-IQ society says it would be happy to administer its test to Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.  \nMensa’s offer came after Trump made headlines for suggesting he’s smarter than Tillerson, saying inan interview with Forbes magazine published Tuesday that if Tillerson did call him a moron, as reported, the two should “compare IQ tests.”  \nADVERTISEMENT  \n\n| |\n| --- |\n| “And I can tell you who is going to win,” Trump told the publication. |\n\nGet Ground Game in your inbox:  \nDaily updates and analysis on national politics from James Pindell.  \nMensa spokesman Charles Brown told the Globe on Tuesday that the organization would be willing to  \nadminister its IQ tests to Trump and Tillerson.  \nTrump suggests he’s smarter than Rex Tillerson  \nIn an interview published Tuesday, President Trump said that if Secretary of State Rex Tillerson did call him a moron, as reported, the two should “compare IQ tests.”  \nDo you qualify for American Mensa membership?  \n“We’re happy to offer our test to anybody really who’s interested in joining our society,” Brown said by phone.  \nThe organization also issued a press release Tuesday with the headline:“Mensa IQ Tests Abound in October—Politicians Welcome.”  \n“American Mensa members come from all walks of life: ground-breaking researchers, smart actors who play dumb on TV, championship-bound (eventually) football coaches—even politicians,” the release said.“Their beliefs and jobs are trumped by their IQ scores. At Mensa, all brilliance is welcome.”  \nADVERTISEMENT  \nINDICATION  \nJUBLIA (efinaconazole) Topical Solution, 10% is a prescription medicine used to treat fungal infections of the toenails  \nBrown said Tuesday that neither Trump nor Tillerson were members of the organization.  \nMensa said there are upwards of 200 intelligence tests that may qualify a person for admission to the group.The primary one is the official Mensa Admissions Test battery—the only IQ test that Mensa administers, the organization said.  \n“To qualify for membership into American Mensa, one must achieve scores in the top 2 percent on an accepted, standardized intelligence test,” according to the organization, which says it has more than 50,000 members in the United States and more than 130,000 globally.  \nOctober, the month Mensa was founded, tends to be the busiest month in terms of the number of test sessions the organization offers, Brown said.  \nThe political news website The Hill reported earlier Tuesday about Mensa’s offer.  \nADVERTISEMENT  \nAttempts have been made to estimate the IQs of public figures, including presidents, even without actual test results.  \nA 2006 study by Dean Keith Simonton, who was then a professor atthe University of California, Davis, estimated “tentative” and “approximate” IQ scores for each US president up through George W. Bush.  \nIn an e-mailto the Globe on Tuesday the professor, who is now retired, said he has not calculated scores for Trump or former president Barack Obama and does not plan to do so.  \n“I’m enjoying my retirement! Getting hate mail spoils my day!”  \nThe professor also said that in his research he has found that IQ scores may not be the best predictor of success for a commander-in-chief.  \nInstead, another measurement, called “Intellectual Brilliance,” was “by far the strongest correlate of presidential performance,” the professor wrote in the e-mail.  \nThe professor’s e-mail said that intellectual brillian","cbCaijGKwVmkmVEJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijGKwVmkmVEJ","pdf",335893,"English","# Trump challenges Tillerson to compare IQ tests\n## Mensa’s offer and membership details\n## Mensa admissions test and qualification criteria\n## Studies estimating IQs of public figures","[{\"question\":\"Why did Trump bring up an IQ test involving Tillerson?\",\"answer\":\"Trump suggested that if Tillerson called him a moron, they should “compare IQ tests,” following interview comments reported by the press.\"},{\"question\":\"What did Mensa say about giving its test to Trump and Tillerson?\",\"answer\":\"Mensa said it would be willing to administer its IQ test to both men, though neither is a member of the organization.\"},{\"question\":\"How does Mensa determine eligibility for membership?\",\"answer\":\"Membership requires scoring in the top 2% on an accepted, standardized intelligence test, using the official Mensa Admissions Test battery.\"}]","Anytime Trump wants to take that IQ test, Mensa is ready to help | PDF",1791050005,11]
