Has anyone ever come across any stupid questions on any admission tests..for example MCAT/PCAT/LSAT?? Well I was helping my friend yesterday with her LSAT review and we both came across the most stupidest question ever. It made me want to shred the review book up into pieces!!!! Question: What is the opposite of cold? We thought: hot/warm REAL answer: "not" cold Are you kidding me???..Just typing this makes my blood boil.

xD i think the owners of that admission test just wanted to laugh a bit lol. That is for sure a very a dumb answer for that question and for sure nobody will answer that correctly, don't be pissed lady just try sending a letter with your complaint. Im my country ive never seen such questions and really are totally out of place

Seriously this is really stupid, therefore for every part of the test whre it asks you what is the opposite of whatever you can just put not whatever, i would have honestly went with hot

That is pretty stupid, is that like a trick question,or someone's idea of a joke. Can you imagine losing points on your entrance exam because of a stupid question and answer like that. Most people would put hot because it is the opposit, why would anyone say, "not cold?" I can see why this is frustrating. As for seeing a stupid question like that myself on such a test it has honestly been such a very long time that I don't remember. I remember there being some really obvious wrong answers, but that is about all I remember.
