Intelligence Test

[urbantechie]

A quick test of intelligence. Don't cheat! Because if you do, the test will be no fun.

There are no Tricks to the test. Read this sentence:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RE-
SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-
IC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.

Now count aloud the F's in that sentence. Important, count them ONLY ONCE: do not go back and count them again
----------------------------------------------























































































































































































































































THE ANSWER:
----------------------------------------------
One of average intelligence finds three of them.
If you spotted four, you're above average.
If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody.
If you caught six, you are a genius. There is no catch.

Many people forget the "OF"'s. The human brain tends to see them as V's and not F's.

imhotepmp

 

[BiggieN]

I DEMAND A RECOUNT...i mean, never mind!

 

[somethingwitty]

well, I wasnt sure until now, but I can now state beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am a Genius! woohoo.

 

[Sluggo]

I saw a dimpled F in there somewhere.

 

[IBhacknU]

ok...

count the "f"'s in this sentence... What the F$#K!

must be late, I'll try again tomorrow

 

[j00]

i got 7, what does that mean?

 

[somethingwitty]

means you're off the charts...whatever THAT means?

 

[Weyoun]

bitch!n!!! I got 6!!

 

[purplehayes]

I got 6. Does this mean I can get into Mensa now?

PH

 

[SiberianTiger]

i got 6! woohoo!

 

[Weyoun]

this makes me wonder just how many people took the test, and didnt post their results....

 

[JenniZ]

I got 6... how hard is that. You put the mouse pointer or your finger on each letter

I think its a pain that its all capitalized though, that makes your eyes go whacky.

 

[dude]

I recounted. still got 12.

 

[Moonbeam]

I just don't believe that's what finished files are.

 

[SackOfAllTrades]

I was mislead, I counted the V's thinking they were F's.

 

[Monel Funkawitz]

I don't know where you guys are getting this info at, but I did not see one fvcking "Q" in that whole damn sentance.

What score do I get with zero?

 

[blurredvision]

I'll be honest, and I only saw 3 of them. Didn't even pay attention to the 'of's. That's weird, thought I would be smarter than that....

 

[pen^2]

i did spot all six of them, but found that line breaking scheme very annoying while at it... i assume it was meant to be broken down to three lines on purpose?

 

[Descartes]

Isn't there a term for it, "psychological distance" ?

I don't see how that judges ones intelligence level.

 

[Regine]

I got six - because I heard somewhere before that many people forget to count the "F" in "of"

 

[littleman]

oh my god. time for preschool again eh? i only got 3
