    Correct Answer:
    You swim across. All the Crocodiles are attending the Animal Meeting.

    This tests whether you learn quickly from your mistakes.
    According to Andersen Consulting Worldwide, around 90% of the professionals they tested got all questions wrong.
    But many preschoolers got several correct answers.
    AndersonConsulting says this conclusively disproves the theory that most professionals have the brains of a four year old.

    If you attack the establishment long enough and hard enough, they will make you a member of it.
