Please read this sentence.

SULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIF-

IC STUDY COMBINED WITH

THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.

Count the F's.

How many did you find?

There are six F's in the sentence.

There is no catch.

A person of average intelligence finds three of them.

If you spotted four, you're above average.
If you got five, you can turn your nose at most anybody.
If you caught six, you are a genius.

yea but how many did you get the first time?
I only got 5 the first time, and that was after I went back and checked just to be sure and saw the last 'of' and was like whoa, where that come from
then when I saw that it was spoused to be 6 I spotted the other 'of' and was pretty shocked

I've seen this before. Got three Fs the first time. I've read that it's something to do with that the brain cannot process the word "of".

Of -- uhv

Thats why, most people, when they read to themselves they might say it outloud, or read it like it sounds and they try to count the eff only if it sounds like an eff...

Well, only illiterate people get all the "f's" because they are dealing with each letter, irrespective of the word. Intelligent and literate people are more aware of the content of the words and not the individual letters.

Take pride in the fact that you are a concrete illiterate. Kudos!

omg I did this before with my aunt, and I still got 4 the first time I tried this.

I even remembered the trick was making sure the Fs in OF were counted and I still mistakenly missed it. wow...wow :angry:
