Answer is THURSDAY .
Explanation:
If yesterday (Wednesday) was tomorrow (Friday), then today(which is a Thursday) would be Saturday.
It actually means if yesterday (Wednesday) is REPLACED with tomorrow (Friday), then today would be Saturday.
Note that the phrase if yesterday was tomorrow means if yesterday is to be replaced with the day of tomorrow and NOT the other way round. My recharge card please!!

Here is mine BREAKDOWN,

IF YESTERDAY = TOMORROW, TODAY = FRIDAY
It simply means Tomorrow from his assumption = SATURDAY
But for real, Yur tomorrow was actually yesterday = SATURDAY (NOTE: If yesterday was tomorrow), therefore, he said this on a SUNDAY!

Re: The First Person To Get This Correctly Wins A Recharge Card. by Davidovinci(m): 10:30am On Jul 20, 2014
Here is my calculation.

Assume the day was Wednesday.
Then the next day was Thursday.
The teacher said "I wish yesterday was tomorrow,
today would have been Friday."
=> If yesterday was Thursday, today would have
been Friday. => A correct sentence.
Wednesday is the answer!
Re: The First Person To Get This Correctly Wins A Recharge Card. by mailkeem(m): 10:32am On Jul 20, 2014
The statement was made on Wednesday. See my analysis below;

If Yesterday (Tuesday) was Tomorrow (Thursday), then today (Wednesday) would have been Friday.

QED!

Re: The First Person To Get This Correctly Wins A Recharge Card. by Ellidude(m): 10:42am On Jul 20, 2014
I'd say Sunday because yesterday = Saturday
yesterday = tomorrow so if Saturday is
tomorrow what day would it be!
SATURDAY=TOMORROW

Re: The First Person To Get This Correctly Wins A Recharge Card. by chreldb(m): 5:06pm On Jul 20, 2014
Answer is Wednesday.

Explanation:

If yesterday (note the word 'if') was tommorow (actual day).

Substitute the word "yesterday" for the clause "Wednesday's yesterday" then substitute the word "tomorrow" for the clause "Wednesday's tomorrow" then you get if Tuesday (Yesterday) was Thursday (actual tomorrow) then today would have been Friday. That is to say if Thursday was yesterday then today would have been Friday. Let me stop there before I get confused grin. But i'm pretty sure i'm correct.
