Your Discipline Career Profiles Ask Dr. Job Intl. Test Your Head Place two aces, two kings, two queens, and two jacks in the format shown below such that no two cards of the same kind border on each other, every ace borders on a king, every king borders on a queen, every queen borders on a jack.

Systematically trying possibilities leads to the above arrangement, or the A and J in positions 7 and 8 may be interchanged.
