H E L P ! I'm a fairly intelligent person, who wants DESPERATELY to join MENSA, the international Hi-IQ society. (I may be one of the VERY few people who wants to join so I can meet people more intelligent than I am!) Anyway, I sent away for a MENSA pre-test, and I think I answered MOST of the questions in the first half correctly! : ) However, when I came to the SECOND half of the test, I just sat there and stared, like a deer, in the dark, who suddenly is confronted by automobile headlights!
ALL THE QUESTIONS ON THE SECOND HALF OF THE TEST DEALT WITH 'SEQUENTIAL MATHEMATICS'....you know, series of numbers like:
" 2, 10, 27, 59....WHAT NUMBER COMES NEXT?" For the life of me, I can't figure this out...nor can I find a book on Sequential Mathematics that I can understand!
Does anyone know of a book, (or Windows Vista compatible software), or DVD, etc, which will EASILY teach me sequential mathematics? Sometimes, (like Princess Diana), I really feel "thick as a plank", despite the fact that others say I'm somewhat intelligent. Learning Sequential Math seems the ONLY way I can have even a chance of entering MENSA. I've even called MENSA up, and asked them what book, software and/or DVD I could use. They had NO suggestions! Can Anyone help me with this, please?????
