OK, here's a really neat intelligence test.

Do exactly as the directions indicate. It is very enlightening!

Do not cheat or you'll be sorry!

Good Luck!

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. Count them ONLY ONCE;
do not go back and count them again. See below...

ANSWER:

There are six F's in the sentence. 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 OFs.
The human brain tends to see them as "V's" instead of "F's".
