Another interesting OT test!

[emily_in_nc]

Read about this in my WinXP newsletter...it's a "brain test" that supposedly measures your cognitive age. I did it just for fun, since I'd had a glass of wine with dinner as well as a splash of peppermint schnapps on a scoop of low-fat ice cream for dessert (I ran today )

Anywho, the results are suspect to say the least, since I knew I made some mistakes, and the test reported my brain age at....are you ready for this:

18

I should mention that I am actually 47 so would have been delighted to test out in my 30s. It's gotta be broken!

Jut thought I'd pass it along for any of you who are bored or idly interested (click on "take the test"):

Have fun!

P.S. You do have to register on the site to take it, but you don't have to provide your email address or any information other than your name, age, gender, and which hand is dominant.

Oh man I got age 52 (I am 39). that is not good. But I am also very tired tonight so maybe I need to take the test after i have had a good nights sleep.

Pfffllltttt!
24

I started laughing because I was doing so poorly. That might be a factor.
Or, as we have all long suspected, I am a maroon.

LOL, at first I thought you misspelled moron...

[kelownagirl]

OK, apparently I'm the moron. And I'm tired. I am 58. ugh.

[snapdragen]

I have a 22 yo brain.

So is it better to have a young brain or an old brain? How do brain years convert into people years? All in all I like that my scale says I'm 16 years old....this test says I'm 51!! (I'm actually 40....and, according to my friend's husband I don't "look" smart! heehee)

I hadn't thought about it like that. Maybe an old brain isn't so bad?

[Deborajen]

It says my brain's 19 (my body's 46). I'm about to fall asleep, so it's not my best effort - ?

Yeah, it must be broken.

Maybe I should try it again tomorrow when my son doesn't keep coming into the room and bugging me... I'm sure I can come up with more excuses if I think about it long enough...

[LBTC]

Yeah, I don't know. Most 51 year olds are a lot smarter than most 18 or 19 year olds that I've ever met.....

Maroon/Moron-
Same thing.
Bugs Bunny calls people "maroons"

[PinkBike]

test says i'm 80. Yikes! That's 560 in dog years.

[maillotpois]

I'm 80, too.

I feel decrepit. I'm going with the "old brain is good" thinking.

My secretary did interrupt me once. But I thought I was doing pretty well, even in spite of that.

[DDH]

OMG, I'm glad I'm not alone. I wasn't sure I was going to post this unless someone else was as old as me.

Mine said 80 too. I don't feel 80, but my brain may feel that way, LOL
