This test consists of four questions. You can't take your time; you have to answer them as quickly as possible.
OK? Let's find out just how clever you really are.
First Question: You are participating in a race and overtake the second person. What is your position?
Answer: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong!
If you overtake the second person and you take his or her place, you are second!
Try not to mess up the next question, and don't take as much time as you took for the first question.
Second Question: If you overtake the last person, then you are...?
Answer: If you answered second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?
You are not very good at this, are you?
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.
Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000.
Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10. What is the total?
Did you get 5000? The correct answer is actually 4100.
Don't believe it? Check with your calculator! (1000 + 40 + 1000 + 30 + 1000 + 20 + 1000 + 10 = 4100)
Today is definitely not your day. Maybe you will get the last question right?

What is the name of the fifth?
