That LSAT to MENSA leap is shameful.

Actually, the LSAT has not (yet) been dumbed down, so it still correlates to standard IQ tests. MENSA still accepts the LSAT for membership.

However, I agree with the point that MENSA is raw intelligence only. Some (or many) of MENSA members are dumb as ditch water when it comes to real-world functioning. (Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt.)
