Let's find out just how clever you really are.......

FIRST QUESTION

ANSWER: If you answered that you are first, then you are absolutely wrong! If you overtake the second person and take there place, you are second!

Try not to screw up next time. now answer the second question, but don't take as much time as you took on the first question, OK?

SECOND QUESTION:

If you overtake the last person, then you are.....?

ANSWER: If you answered that you are second to last, then you are wrong again. Tell me, how can you overtake the LAST person?
You're not very good at this are you?
