Everything in our lives follows logic. That’s why logic has been studied for hundreds of years. But logic isn’t just a boring set of rules that force you to “think right.” Nope — it’s an art. It’s about lining up your thoughts like a general commanding an army of ideas in a battle against chaos and nonsense.
To help you get a feel for what logic really is, AdmiGram.com “overheard” how a logic exam went down at one university. And guess what? While you read through it, you can test your own logical thinking, too. (For the record, we personally flunked by question three!)
What Is Logic — The Funniest Explanation Ever
Logic Exam — In Progress:
Professor:
“There are 100,000 bricks on a plane. One brick falls off. How many bricks are left on board?”
Student:
“That’s easy! 99,999.”
Professor:
“Correct. Next question. How do you put an elephant in the fridge in three steps?”
Student:
“1. Open the fridge. 2. Put the elephant inside. 3. Close the fridge.”
Professor:
“Good. Now, how do you put a deer in the fridge in four steps?”
Student:
“1. Open the fridge. 2. Take out the elephant. 3. Put in the deer. 4. Close the fridge.”
Professor:
“Excellent! The lion is having a birthday. All the animals show up except for one. Why?”
Student:
“Because the deer is still in the fridge.”
Professor:
“Perfect!” says the professor. “Let’s continue. Can Grandma cross a swamp full of crocodiles?”
Student:
“Of course she can! They’re all at the lion’s birthday party.”
Professor:
“Good. Now the last question. Grandma crosses the empty swamp, but she still dies. What happened?”
Student:
“Umm… maybe she drowned?”
Professor:
“Nope, sorry. The brick that fell off the plane landed on her. SEE YOU AT THE RETAKE!”
