You verbally speak to an active member of mensa and they tell you. You can find them through the brainR app on the google play store.

131 is 98th percentile. Its 1 in 52 if you're going to be precise.

If I remember rightly, verbal IQ tests were basically vocabulary tests. I have a score above yours and a working memory better than that of most math prodigies, and I think the working memory is far more helpful in writing metered poetry. In writing “poetry” (as well as prose) in the style currently popular, I think verbal IQ is probably most important. If you want to write in meter, though, working memory can be improved, or at least I’ve heard so—likely bullshit, but worth a try.

The verbal iq test wasnt just vocabulary, it was verbal maths problems and verbal visual spatial problems
