I thought this was interesting...

A quick test of intelligence. Don't cheat! Because if you did, the test would be no fun. I promise, there are no tricks to the test.

Count ALOUD the F's in the paragraph below. Count them ONLY ONCE: do not go back and count them again.

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


See below...



















Answer 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 "OF"s. The human brain tends to see them as V's and not F's.

Pretty weird, huh? It fools almost everybody. Did anyone get them all??? DONT CHEAT OR LIE! hehe

When I got to scientific, I realized that I missed something......so I looked back and got them.....guess thats cheating though. If not, then I got all six.
