          I received this from banking friends who always seem to
     have an abundance of this material. It does not contain the 
     answers, but once you get the key it is all downhill from there.
     The rest is self explanitory. Good luck!

HOW MENTALLY ALERT, FLEXIBLE AND CREATIVE ARE YOU?
 
This test does not measure your intelligence, your fluency with
words and certainly not your ability. It will however, give you
some guage of your mental flexibility and creativity. In the three
years since the test was developed, few people were able to solve
more than half of the twenty four questions on the first try. Many
however reported getting answers long after the test had been set
aside - particilarly at unexpected moments when their minds were
relaxed and some reported solving all the questions over a period 
of several days. Take this as your personal challenge.
