Know if you're smart.... Test For Smart Folks...
The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and
will tell you whether you are qualified to be a
"professional."
Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT
that difficult.
1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
The correct answer is: Open the refrigerator, put in
the giraffe, and close the door.
This question tests whether you tend to do simple
things in an overly complicated way.
2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?
Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant, and close
the refrigerator. (Wrong Answer)
Correct Answer: Open the refrigerator, take out the
giraffe, put in the elephant and close the door. This
tests your ability to think through the repercussions
of your previous actions.
3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All
the animals attend except one. Which animal does not
attend?
Correct Answer: The Elephant. The elephant is in the
refrigerator. This tests your memory.
OK, even if you did not answer the first three
questions correctly, you still have one more chance to
show your true abilities.
4. There is a river you must cross but it is inhabited
by crocodiles. How do you manage it?
Correct Answer: You swim across. All the crocodiles
are attending the Animal Meeting. This tests whether
you learn quickly from your mistakes.
According to Anderson Consulting Worldwide, around 90%
of the professionals they tested got all questions
wrong. But many preschoolers got several correct
answers. Anderson Consulting says this conclusively
disproves the theory that most professionals have the
brains of a four year old.
Send this out to frustrate all of your smart friends.
