Re: Are you a "Mental Gymnast"?
Methinks such an interviewee could have a field day with it.
As a couple of us have pointed out, the logic behind the answer posted in the FAQ is in error.
The interviewee could give the interviewer the FAQ answer and then explain *why* the answer in the FAQ is wrong.
It would be a good way to demonstrate that s/he doesn't take information provided at face value--testing it to see if it makes sense.
If the interviewee gave the answer you propose, it would show - since that answer is wrong - that he or she has firm opinions on subjects beyond his or her firm grasp. Not exactly a field day, more like a way to lose a job.
