The refrigerator test
You will be asked four questions and you must rely on your common sense to answer them correctly.

According to Andersen consulting worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all of the questions wrong. But many pre-school children got several correct answers. Andersen consulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four year old.

 

Q1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?

 

Correct Answer: 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. 

 

Q2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator?

 

Wrong Answer: Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close the refrigerator. 

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 actions.

 

Q3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All the animals attend, except one. Which animal does not attend?

 

Correct Answer: The elephant, since it is still in the refrigerator. 

This tests your memory. 

 

Even if you did not answer the first three questions correctly, you still have one more chance to show your abilities.

 

Q4. There is a river you must cross, but it is inhabited by crocodiles. How do you manage it?

 

Correct Answer: You swim across. All of the crocodiles are attending the meeting!

This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.

I didn't know all of the questions would relate to each other. That's what made it confusing!

Well my answer to the first two was you don't put live animals in refrigerators, so you might guess how mine turned out. I didn't get a single one right :-3

I got them ALL right, lol, it's because I'm a very flexible person, and try to see things in another perspective. And they didn't put "the refrigerator" on because it would be too easy!

I have so much common sense, but I got all of these wrong. I don't do trick questions. I do not think this test proves anything

I only got the first one right. I didn't think that they were all connected! I thought that you should just find a bridge on the last one.

I got the first one right...the next one should have said "the" refrigerator because I WOULD have gotten that one right if they'd said that! And I didn't get any of the others right. Haha. xD
