I got 6 the first time I did it.

Tho when I was doing it I skipped over the first "of" and just as my eye was going to the next word I realized I didnt count that "F", and figured that "of" was prolly the crux of the problem, so I was super aware of the other "of"s in the sentance.

This is clearly a test for the 98%+th percentile of ADHD patients, in terms of symptom severity.. I can only assume you posted this because you got 5000. The shame!

Do the math in your head.

Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000.
Now add 30. And another 1000.
Now add 20. Now add another 1000. Now add 10.
What is the total? Scroll to the bottom to find out.

ANSWER:

<font color="white">Studies have shown that 98% of the population ends up with the number 5000. The math above actually adds up to 4100. Don't believe us? Get out the calculator! </font>

people think of the 20, 30 40 numbers into hundreds instead and that makes 5000, probably just some weird thing the mind does because it is easier.

Thank you, I was trying to figure out what brain fart I was having that kept giving me 5000.

A similar thing that is funky where the mind plays tricks on you, I failed it the first time-
Count the "F's" in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE EXPERIENCE OF YEARS.

The answer:
<font color="white">6
The brain cannot process "OF".
Three is normal, four is quite rare. </font>

[/ QUOTE ]

Holy sh!t. I was so careful too. I got 3. I guess it's because "of" sounds like "uv" so you don't process the F. You could probably make very profitable wagers on both of these.

Same here and I pwned the 4100
