Last week I had an interview.
Everything went well.
Then I had another interview.
Everything went well.
And then I had psychometric tests. And everything went to Hell.

First was the "verbal comprehension" test, I think it went well, very well.
Then I had a basic math test... 30 minutes, 33+ questions such as:

* 5 rais = 1 dinar
* 1000 liras = 1 dinar
"Abu Mohammed has 8135 liras and 43rais, how many dinars does that make? Convert what remain in liras"

* Assembly line A has a 30% probability to fail per day
* Assembly line B has a 5% probability to fail per day
"What is the probability of both assembly lines fail the same day."

* When it is 11 in Paris it's 23 Rio.
* When it's 8 in Rio, it's 12 in Ottawa.
* When It 2 in Ottawa Canberra
"What hour is it in Canberra when it's 3 in Paris" (except the question was harder than that)

* Marc, Fred, and Ted start a company.
* Marc capital is 2
* Fred capital is 8
* Ted capital is 5
"The first year, the company earn $734.000, how much Marc get?"

There was a lot of question with a lot of data in them, tables and tables of numbers but everything was 8years old level.

Etc...
I failed hard. I only managed to answer (badly) 12 questions in 30 minutes

Then there was the A B S T R A C T test: 105 questions involving... abstract forms. Out of the 105 questions I only find 3 patterns.

Now I know I'm a retard, it's pointless to try to act cool or smart. I'm iq89 for real. It's not even a joke, I felt utterly stupid. Pride was shattered, I'm an absolute retard. I don't know what to do. I never wanted to be retarded, I wanted to be cool and sexy like /sci/...
