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.

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.

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.
