Same reaction on my case. A Polygraph test (?!?), we are supposed to be in 2016 now ! Is that antique method seriously still used in the US ? It looks like a joke. Better throwing a dice at that point.

No, it's not.

Polygraph is generally only used in the US to intimidate government employees and to trick criminal suspects into making confessions.
