IQ Questions

You guys know how much I like solving Logic Puzzles/Brain Teasers right?

Oh, you don't?

Well, now you do!

So, I'll be posting some IQ questions at the beginning of each month from now onwards. And I'll link the post with the questions on my blog's sidebar so you guys can look up the questions anytime.

Here's some easy questions to get your brain working, something my brain hasn't been doing since my "holidays" started.

Enjoy:

1) Question : A man says, "Brothers and sisters, have I none, but that man's father is my father's son.Who is he pointing at? (Submitted by pjjnuni)

And here's another pretty standard question you can find anywhere

2) Question : Three people check into a hotel. They pay $30 to the manager and go to their room. The manager finds out that the room rate is $25 and gives $5 to the bellboy to return. On the way to the room the bellboy reasons that $5 would be difficult to share among three people so he pockets $2 and gives $1 to each person.

Now each person paid $10 and got back $1. So they paid $9 each, totalling $27. The bellboy has $2, totalling $29.

Where is the remaining dollar?

And here's a "Zhar-Dou" type of question.

3) Question : The Mississippi River is the dividing line between Tennessee and Arkansas. If an airplane crashed exactly in the middle of the Mississippi River there, where would the survivors be buried?

Ok, have I got your brains all worked up?

Here comes a harder one, created by none other than our favourite smarty pants with white bushy hair, Mr Einstein.

4) Question :

There are 5 houses in 5 different colours. In each house lives a person of a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. Using the clues below can you determine who owns the fish?

The Brit lives in a red house.
The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
The Dane drinks tea.
The green house is on the immediate left of the white house.
The green house owner drinks coffee.
The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
The man living in the house right in the middle drinks milk.
The Norwegian lives in the first house.
The man who smokes Blend lives next door to the one who keeps cats.
The man who keeps horses lives next door to the man who smokes Dunhill.
The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer.
The German smokes Prince.
The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
The man who smokes Blend has a neighbour who drinks water.

And here's a cool one!

5) Question : Why is there an extra square?



Take out our calculators and do your brain a favour!

Go on, try it out!

You know you want to.

Yih Hon a.k.a Marcuz will give you a prize if you get all of them correct!

Ok, I just finished my Bio 03 paper!! It went quite well. But it was really a race against time to answer all the questions in the amount of time given.

Well, there was this qustion about Perwinkles.

Now, when I say perwinkles what do you think of?

Some fluffy white bunny in some grassland ya?

Actually its some ugly looking algae-eating organism that only eats certain species of algae called enteromorpha.

Didn't know that?

Well, neither did I.

So, you still think Edexcels' London A-levels is much easier than Cambridge's?

I think not!

We have at least 6 papers for each subject, and for you to get an "A", you need to at least need to score 80 and above for EVERY single paper. Unless of course you are super genius named Wei Ping who scored 100% for 11 out of 16 papers.

Exam Paper Count:

5 down, 11 more papers to go!
