We often talk about different people's ingenious and non-standard solutions in critical situations, but there are those who have unconventional thinking, as they say, in their blood, from birth. We mean children.

Indeed, almost all children are born with absolutely non-standard thinking, which then we, adults, drive into the narrow framework and corridors of the reality we have created. As a result, we tend to consider any original decision made in adulthood as a manifestation of genius.

However, there are always critical moments when even children accustomed to stereotypes and standardization turn on their natural creativity to the fullest. Yes, we are talking about tests and exams, and if the child has not really studied school material yet, then the genius of their creative solutions is impressive.

Remember those stories about the job tests at Google or Tesla? It seems that any of these kids, whose smart and witty answers Bored Panda compiled in a special list for you, would easily pass these tests. Or maybe, who knows, some of them have already been contacted by recruiters from Silicon Valley? At least these answers were collected on this dedicated Instagram account.

Anyway, feel free to scroll down, comment and enjoy, and if this is not enough for you, we have more. Just look here: one, two and even three! The creative show must definitely go on!

Because Mary is lazy and sampled a smaller group.

I mean, the question didn't ask why Mark IS right (which he is, due to his much larger sample size); it asks why Mark THINKS he's right. And we can't see inside Mark's head, and Mark isn't even real, so this answer would be as accurate as any other.

The hypothetical Mark is justified in asuming that a 50% poll is more accurate than a poll of just 10%. Madrk thinks he's right because he is right.

Ironically, women are far more likely to be more thorough on this sort of data than men. Primarily because they are constantly second-guessed by males.

Trick question. Answer is neither. Because together they only asked 180 outta 300 so they are still missing a significant portion of responses

True, but he still can think his poll is truer because he asked 5 times the number of people that she asked.

Mary only asked 10% of the class, Mark asked 50% Mark s conclusions are more acurtate and that is why he think so.

Not enough information to reach a solid conclusion. What sampling techniques? Mark's may have been all boys, Mary may have had a great randomization methodology. So in essence the written answer may have been correct.

Never mind that Mark did the work and Mary didn't, so she could cry and point and shout "BECAUSE HE'S A MAN!"

From someone who's graded K- Junior College assignments, that's not a child's handwriting. For those saying "she" is in 10th grade, it does not mention the test-taker's gender or grade level. The students in the problem are year 10. If 10th gr/ yr 10 students are getting questions this easy, the education system is in more trouble than I thought

Actually, I'm pretty sure this question is on the ASU entrance exam and it's worth 60% of the mark...

Not enough information to answer the question, how did each student come up with the sample? If Mary asked her friends and Mark asked his, then both samples are biased.
