| I got them all right. But I'd appeal the boat flag (1st question) if I'd gotten it wrong. WTH?? |

| 4 out of 5, but only because I have no idea what happens at a "grocery store." |

| Got 4/5 |

| I just tested my 5yo for fun. She got 1/5. Then she wanted to do it again and got 5/5. That is what the elite kids in New York do. |

| 4 out of 5, because WTH with that first question?! |

| Not only are the questions hard - got 4/5 (think the boat and the fence are ridiculous) - but they are terribly written. The grocery store question made zero sense, and I got it right simply as a process of elimination that left a choice that still wasn't really "right." |

Ridonculous test... and for what? I guess they have so much competition to get in, that they can set any bonkers standard they want to winnow the applicant pool. Unfortunately it means little tykes--who have no business "prepping" for admissions tests--are going to be doing just that.
I'm so damn glad I don't live in Manhattan. Holy crap. |
