The Mega Society is a high IQ society open to people who have scored at the one-in-a-million level or more on a particular test of general intelligence, called the Mega Test, claimed to be able to discriminate at that level.[2] It was founded in 1982 by Ronald K. Hoeflin to facilitate psychometric research.[3]
The public profile of the Mega Society increased with the publication of the Mega Test in 1985 by Hoeflin.[4]
