You are pretty logical.



You're a bit of a wizard when it comes to logic
While you don't have perfect logic, you logic is pretty darn good
Keep at it - you've got a lot of natural talent in this area!

You Are Incredibly Logical
Move over Spock - you're the new master of logic
You think rationally, clearly, and quickly.

I'm struggling with the third question, though, which strikes me as ambiguous. I chose one and got the result I posted, but then I picked another answer at random and still got the "you are incredibly logical" which suggests to me that even if you get one wrong you would still get that result. I'd like to know what the right answer is to that question, if there is one.

I don't know if it's correct, but I chose the thrid statement - The number of false statements here is three - seeing as only one statement can be correct, three must be false.

So did I. Examining it closer, that seems to be correct though I didn't quite use that reasoning. I'll plug away with another wrong answer or two on other parts of the quiz to see if we were right.

EDIT: wouldn't -> didn't

Which other reasoning did you use?

I used proof by contradiction to demonstrate that the other three statements are false, though come to think of it your reasoning seems sound as well. My problem was when they said "Taking the below statements as a group", which I found ambiguous. One alternative interpretation I had was that all four statements were to be reinterpreted as only one statement, but I found that unlikely and perhaps absurd.

Our answer was the correct one, by the way; I just checked. I think my other answers are right as well but I won't mention them here because I don't want to give away the quiz for everyone else.

Logic? Logic is bird tweeting in a tree. Logic is pretty flowers, that smell really bad...
Philosphy, is a walk on slippery rocks, religion, is a light in the fog.

I like birds.

Not sure how that happened. I wonder if I could submit this result to replace the logic sections on the two Graduate Record Examinations I took.

Well, it's not really seeing people hurt that's funny, but more so the "comical portrayal" of people getting hurt. For example, seeing someone repeatedly bludgeoned is obviously no laughing matter, but the Three Stooges are hilarious.
