IQ isn't all processing speed, it's only one part of the test. If you can't solve the symbol puzzle, you can't solve it.

Which is... exactly what I said.
Did you get halfway through the first paragraph and reply based on that?
EDIT: Also, the symbol puzzle is timed as well. Most of the IQ questions are perfectly solvable by the average person when given a day to think about it, or 6 hours or so at the least. Raven's Matricies are far easier if you are given 6 hours to dwell on it a little.
Also, with the MENSA test, you aren't just timed on the total test, everyone does the same question at the same time. There's someone reading them out.
