Joe and Steve caught a dozen fish. Steve caught twice as many as Joe. How many more did Steve catch than Joe?

That's an easy one, but similar to most of the math-related questions.

www.highiqsociety.com to get an idea.

there are also a ton of questions that ask you to find a pattern. Some of them can be pretty weird like

5 18 96 564 etc.

Were the pattern is (N-2)*6 stuff like that

Just take some of the on-line tests and you'll get the general feeling of what will be asked.

I am actually looking for the exact ones used in the WAIS test.

I think some are:
Why do we pay taxes?
Why do we have seasons?
Who wrote Faust?


So, can anyone remember some of the others?
