Correct Answer:

This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.

According to Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around
90% of the professionals they tested got all questions wrong.

But many preschoolers got several correct answers. Andersen
Consulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most
professionals have the brains of a four year old.

I wonder what it says about me that I answered the first with "cut it up into wee little pieces ..." ;)

Funny, the only one I got wrong was the last one and that was because I was trying to think of a way to "send" the crocs to the gathering so I could cross, so I gave up. LOL

It just goes to show you, a child's mind is never wasted, but growups have lots to learn. ;)
