Visual Memory Test

Taken from the same website in my previous entry:

Your visual memory score was 8.

You may have noticed that there were a total of eight "students" in the chess club. Four of these students won every match they played, and four lost every match they played. Thus, it was possible to learn to predict the outcome of every match -- if you learned which students were "winners" and which were "losers". The test continued until you correctly guessed the winner of eight consecutive matches, or to a maximum of 120 trials. Your score is the number of trials it took you to finish the game -- so a low number is good (8 is the best you could achieve, 120 is worst). Most healthy people who play this game finished within an average of about 20-25 trials. If you took fewer than 14 trials, you did better than 75% of than other people taking the test. If you took more than 60 trials, you did worse than 75% of the other people taking the test.
