Tagged with:    [Post New]posted on 25 Jun 2008 23:48:46 IST    

Below are 4 questions. Answer them instantly. You can't take your time. Answer them immediately. No pencil or paper! OK?

ANSWER: If you answer that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and you take his place, you are second! Try not to screw up in the next question.







To answer the second question, don't take as much



time as you took for the first question.

ANSWER: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?!







THIRD QUESTION: Very tricky math! Note: This must be done in your head only. Do NOT use paper and pencil or a calculator. Try it.

Now add another 1000.



Now add 30.



Add another 1000.



Now add 20.



Now add another 1000.

ANSWER: Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.







Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?
