Japanese IQ test

Post by DRuM »

Click on link then click on blue circle. Use the rules below.
Apparently this is an IQ test given to job applicants in Japan.
Everybody has to cross the river.

The following rules apply:

Only two persons 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 start, click on the big blue circle on the right.

To move the people, click on them.
To move the raft, click on the pole on the opposite side of the river.

These problems are similar to, but easier than, the problems that I had to do on the analytical portion of the graduate record exams I needed to take to get into my PhD program years ago. I missed 1 problem and scored in the 99th percentile nationwide (top 1 percent).

The test actually had 3 portions, math, engrish, and analytical.

Then I took the biology GRE. That covered everything to do with biology. So, folks taking the SAT - don't complain - standardized tests will only get harder after you finish college.

Christ, finally.
This took me about 10 minutes. lol

tnf, my girlfriend just took a practice set of GREs (the actual test, but it didn't count) and brought some math & english questions home after. That was quite tough. I'm usually good at standardized tests like that, but I'll need some work before I can through that. Although, I only have a little college done so far, so I've got time...

It's obvious. The Policeman needs to call the Social Worker to take the Sons and Daughters into care as the Mother and Father already clearly have an order taken out on them. The problem sorts itself out after that.

That's probably the test, the solution is pretty simple really it's just a matter of keeping at it for a few minutes till you figure it the fuck out. It's probably meant to test your patience. Americans would probably suck at this.

I went to a job interview for Eircom (Irelands phone company) and was given an IQ test where I was the only fucker in the room to even get one answer right.
It was a logic circuit game but the components were traffic lights, and the final output was dependent on the series of on/off combos of them along the circuit. I thought it was excellent fun and got everyone right. The rest had to be talked through EACH question.
The job was given to the dumb fuck beside me who was working in another dept of Eircom which was being shut down. Yay favoritism.

It was probably a janitorial position.
