I swear I saw some fourth grade math there, at least once.

I swear I saw some second-grade vocabulary/reading comprehension there at least many times.

The question had a cart wheel, with six spokes. It said to find the angle of each spoke.

I remember that one. The test was so, soooo easy. I finished the multiple choice part with an hour to spare. And the verbal was definitely the easiest part.

I kept checking my answers over and over, so I had about half an hour at the end. But when you think about it, only about a ninth of the applicants make it in, so don't y'all get your hopes up.

Well, the first cut is about 800 of the total people who applied, and then the second cut is about 550. So...

And I didn't check every single one of my answers... I always get so bored when I'm checking my answers.
