WARNING: Read this entire post before you look at any of the answers!!


This is a test that does not measure your IQ w/ words or your mathematical ability. It will give you a gauge of your mental flexibility and creativity. In the many years since this test was developed, few have been able to solve more than half of the items on the first try. Many, however, have reported getting the answers long after the test had been set aside, particularly at unexpected moments when their minds were relaxed. Take this as a personal challenge!

The items are all well known like the following example:

1. 26 - L of the A

3. 7 - W of the A W

5. 1,001 - AN
6. 29 - D in F in a LY
7. 12 - S of the Z
