Week #3- How good is your memory?     
        1)   I took the memory test, and my overall results were 74/100, which indicate that I have very little difficulty remembering things. I believe I have a pretty decent memory. I can remember the good and the bad. I can remember important events that too place weeks ago. Ultimately I remember things that are significant to me or really impacted me. However, this short quiz was only 7 questions, there is no way you can measure someone’s memory with 7 short questions. 
   
2  2)   I took the short memory test and I scored 7 out of 12, which basically mean I’m at working at an average capacity. Your short term memory can hold information up to 30 seconds. Therefore, as I was trying to put all the words together, I could only recall words from the first column.
        
       3)  I took the picture short term memory test; this quiz is pretty much similar to the one that I took with words, but in picture form. The results were way better than the first quiz, so in my opinion, I process words better through pictures. I prefer using images, pictures, and colors to organize information
.         
     4)   I took the face memory test and my recognition skill is fairly good. I got everything right except for the lips and face structure. Well the face that I picked to remember was somewhat similar to a pig’s face. Therefore, I just picked based on what’s in my head. In conclusion, this test was a little off, since the quiz only gives you 3 different options, which was too easy in my opinion. 
       
5    5)  Lastly, I took the everyday object test that makes you pick out which one is the current penny. It didn’t take me long to pick the answer choice A, and surprisingly I got it right. It was pretty obvious in my opinion that answer choice A was the correct penny, but as stated most people have a hard time making the right choice.

Week #2- Politics and Personality           
Political Personality Quiz- In my opinion, I believe that this quiz is in accurate because I did skip a few questions since I had no way of answering them. This quiz told me that I side with Autocratic on most issues, which is funny, because I don’t agree with having the form of government where one person has an unlimited amount of power.
 
Political Compass- None of these questions can simply be answered with agree or disagree. They are all bias questions, expecting you to give an exact answer. I was not surprised by my compass score since the results are almost identical to my first quiz, but it was surprisingly interesting to see that I was on the same boat as Gandhi. Still this quiz could not assume your political compass without being completely wrong.
     
Political Typology- Once again I was not surprised by the result. I actually quit trying to answer the questions after the 5th. The quiz felt like someone else was trying to put words into my mouth. Neither of the two answer choices are really what I think. I really don’t follow any of the political typologies, but I am pretty neutral. 
     
ISideWith- This is actually my first time taking this quiz and I sided with Sanders, which was nothing out the ordinary, since he is the only candidate that I approve and vote for if I was legal. I mean overall the quiz was accurate for the most part, but people shouldn’t use this quiz to make a final decision on who to vote for.
