FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY COMBINED WITH
THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

Which sentence?

And what does this have to do with intelligence?

Its more at test of detail. Plus knowing that your brain tends to percieve words like "as" and "or" as symbols in their own right, not letter grouping.

I got them all first time, because I have been caught like this before. If I were not paying attention, I'd only get the 3.

If this is supposed to be an intelligence test, then I guess I'll say 1. The sentence where they ask for the F's doesn't say anything about the sentence above, ergo the question must be about the sentence where they ask for the F's. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
I'm probably wrong, though, and the correct number is probably 6. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I found 20 f's, which indicates I am the smartest person ever. Yes, I also came to this conclusion after performing just this single test.

They use variations of this test in medical circles, it generally doesn't mean anything except how observant you are.
