Is the challenge to try to get the page to load? Cause uhhh

The server at http://www.cs.berkeley.edu is taking too long to respond.

That is insane.

No way I'm doing that. (I would fail anyways).

The thing I got is Q10 = A, Q16 = D.
Here is solution.
SPOILER
ex) 10A : if Q10's answer is A / 16C : if Q16's answer is C
10A>16D>10A right :)
10B>16A>10D wrong :(
10C>16E>10E wrong :(
10D>16B>10C wrong :(
10E>16C>10B wrong :(
You see, they are looping and looping.

Added : Q6 = D, Q17 = D
(solution is same as above)

Nope.

I already solved those, and both of your sets are wrong.

Also, please spoiler/spoilerbox everything, as I did when quoting.

Wow, this is going to take a while to solve.

Consider questions 9 and 13.

Well, the main things I got so far is:

Q1:
SPOILER
Can't be A or B

Q5:
SPOILER
Can't be A

Q6 & Q17
SPOILER
B or D (Q17 will be the reverse)

Q7:
SPOILER
Q7 can't be B or D
if Q8 = A, then Q7 = C
if Q8 = C, then Q7 = D
if Q8 = E, then Q7 can be anything

Q10 & 17
SPOILER
10=A, 16=D
I know it doesn't work out with 9 and 13, but I don't see any other way? :<

Those are the only I really though about, the rest, my program takes care of. Kinda got stuck somewhere and stopped last night, gonna continue today.

Here are my notes from this morning (before I had to leave, Ph0X):

SPOILER
1. not A, B
2. E iff 9 = 10 = A
3. not A, E
4.
5.
6. B or D, not 17
7.
8. ~12
9. A iff 10 = A
10. A or D, not 16
11.
12. ~8
13.
14.
15. ~12
16. A or D, not 10
17. B or D, not 17
18.
19.
20. E

Did you actually do it?

Also, I believe #20 is like #19, strager. Any answer is right.

No.

20. Standardized test : intelligence :: barometer :
(A)
temperature (only)
(B)
wind-velocity (only)
(C)
latitude (only)
(D)
longitude (only)
(E)
all of the above
Standardized tests are not a measure of intelligence, just as barometers are not a measure of ...

Barometers measure air pressure.

You can also very well say

It's the example where I eat all your cookies, and you ask me, did you eat my cookies, and I reply, "I ate some of your cookies".
I didn't lie, since I did eat some of them, and I also ate all of them. Therefore, all the answer are right.

Doesn't matter, because it doesn't do ANY of them anyways. So saying that it does all of those is as wrong as saying it only does one of those.

Yes, but I doubt that is what was intended.
