The following short quiz consists of 4 questions and  tells whether you are qualified to be called a "professional." 

Scroll down for each answer. The questions are not that difficult. 



1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator? 
 
 
 
 

 
 
The correct answer is: 
Open the refrigerator, put in the giraffe and close 
the door. This question tests whether you tend to do 
simple things in an overly complicated way. 
 

2. How do you put an elephant into a refrigerator? 

 
 
 
Wrong answer: 
Open the refrigerator, put in the elephant and close 
the refrigerator. 
 
Correct answer: 
Open the refrigerator, take out the giraffe, put in 
the elephant and close the door. This tests your 
ability to think through the repercussions of your 
actions. 
 
 

3. The Lion King is hosting an animal conference. All 
the animals attend except one. Which animal does not 
attend? 
 

 
 
 
Correct Answer: 
The elephant. The elephant is in the refrigerator. 
This tests your memory. OK, even if you did not answer 
the first three questions correctly, you still have 
one more chance to show your abilities. 

4. There is a river you must cross. But it is 
 inhabited by crocodiles. How do you manage it? 
 
 
 

Correct Answer: You swim across. All the crocodiles 
are attending the animal conference. This tests 
whether you learn quickly from your mistakes. 
 
 
 
 

According to Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all the questions wrong. But many preschoolers got several correct  answers. Anderson Consulting says this conclusively 
disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four year old. 
 
Send this out to frustrate all of your friends.
