if you left a king alone with another kings wife he would run away with her!

i never figured it out, but it was so simple when he showed me how

boring stuff, my opinion. No creative power. Just test and trial.

Why do they call it a "test of IQ" and give it at a job interview then?

That is argument from authority. How is it exactly a test of IQ? It does nothing to discover new realities. The test only explores that if someone can solve a given problem in a time sensitive manner.

I personally never got such crap on my interviews. Puzzles are good for a child's brain only as it is developing it teaches some problem solving skills. Thinking and critical reasoning encompasses more than just problem solving skills.

Some part doesnt make sense tho. When the Robber is on the land by herself, she could just make a run for it.

They do give these kinds of problems at interviews to see how good of a problem solver you are.

Here's one that was given at the interview, can you solve it?

You come to a stop in your two door car and You see the ideal dream girl of your life that you will marry in a heartbeat and you see your best friend. It's pour like crazy out there, only two people can fit in a car, who do you give the ride to?

Japanese IQ Test


This is an IQ test given to job applicants in Japan...or so I've been told.

"Everybody has to cross the river"

To play, click the link below - then click the blue circle to start.

The following rules apply:

* Only 2 people on the raft at a time.
* The Father cannot stay with any of the daughters, without their Mother's presence.
* The Mother cannot stay with any of the sons, without their Father's presence.
* The thief (striped shirt) cannot stay with any family member, if the Policeman is not there.
* Only the Father, the Mother and the Policeman know how to operate the raft.


To move people, click on them. To move the raft, click on the pole on the opposite side of the river. The solution is possible! THIS IS NOT A TRICK!

Take test - __________________
