    Noesis The Journal of the Poetic Society (Issue #16, July 1987) Editorial Ronald K. Hoeflin P. O. Box 7430 New York, NY 10116 New Admission Cut-off, Several members have expressed the view that it would be a good idea to reduce the Society's admission cut-off from a raw score of 43 to one of 42 on the Mega Test, since Omni maga- zine (April 1985) specified 42 as the cut-oft for the Mega Society. It soon became apparent that 42 was too low a cut-off for that society. I founded the Titan Society for those who had scored 43 or better on the Mega Test, thinking that this was about the one-in-100,000 level. My fourth norming of the Mega Test, published in issue #14 of this jour- nal, puts the cut off for the Mega Society, the one-in-a-million level, at a raw score of 45, while 43 appears now to correspond to the one-in- 300,000 level. I see no harm, therefore, in reducing our cut-off to 42, which appears to be about the one-in-225,000 level. The following nine persons are therefore eligible to join this group. I include hers one person who recently scored 46 on the Mega Test plus eight who scored 42. Two or three of our current thirteen members actually scored 42 on their first attempts at the Mega Teat, incidentally. Those who wish to join should send as $5 to cover dues for the remainder of 1987. Rush Elkins Gary H.

  • Noesis ISPE's History
    surreptitious editorial control of Vidya, the journal of the Triple Nine Society, through Clint Williams seems far-fetched to me. I have removed this portion from Noesis ISPE's history. 6/29/97Removed the speculation that ISPE doesn't accept the Mega Test or the LAIT out of animosity towards the authors. The practice of using only psychologist-approved tests, notwithstanding the The Journal of the Mega Society validity of the tests themselves, at least has the merit of Number 134 circumventing problems such as the Mega Society has had with Paul Maxim. August 1997 Acting Editor—Chris Cole P 0 Box 10119 Newport Beach, CA 92658-0119 IN THIS ISSUE EDITORIAL RESULTS OF MEGA SOCIETY ELECTION by Jeff Ward CHESS PROBLEMS by Jeff Ward MY TUPPENCE WORTH ABOUT TEN BALLS by Robert Low A NOTE ON CONFLICT by Robert Low A SHORT (AND BLOODY) HISTORY OF THE HIGH I.Q. SOCIETIES by Darryl Miyaguchi The results of the election are in, and they are clear in some respects and unclear in others (see Jeff Ward's report for the numerical results). It is clear that the membership desires to ratify the concept that the Mega Society is open to anyone with one-in-a-million test scores, and that Ron Hoeflin's tests are capable of distinguishing intelligence at this level. Thus, we can conclude that the Society's historical focus on using these tests is ratified. In particular, Paul Maxim cannot be admitted on the basis of the test scores he has currently submitted. We also have a volunteer for Editor, and since there was only one, there is no need for an election.

Mega means million and denotes the one-in-a-million status of its members. Presently, the only viable adult-level admissions test is the Titan Test, developed by its founder, Ron Hoeflin – where 43/48 correct answers corresponds to the minimum accepted IQ level of 176.
