Given what I have read over the yrs I would think so. :-k
Some of the people who I think would be likely are:Pots,Mr_Roboto,Peter,Bubba,Lockdoc,Fire Cakes,Blazer.
Kind of me just being curious again.

Well Gary I did take their prep exam a few years ago and was close but I never bothered to go through the whole long winded membership exam and such. I've never really considered a "score" to be proof of intelligence, Not to mention A lot of an IQ test is based on math and memory function but some people don't have a math mind yet are smart as all get out.

According to Wikipedia, Mensa is a non-profit organization open to people who score at the 98th percentile or higher on a standardized, supervised intelligence test.
This being the case with the score of the last IQ test I took, I do qualify. But aside from saying, "Look at me. I'm a Mensa member.", I see no point in joining.

Here is a 30 question test just for the fun of it:
