I felt I needed to really challenge my brain, see how things are working up there nowadays and I tell you, this has definitely opened my eyes to new understandings. As a Psych major, I find this very stimulating, not just as another challenge or brain teaser, but becoming aware of how my brain interprets different concepts I am really glad I have found this site.

I guess I haven't used my brain much since college - many years ago. It is nearly midnight - maybe I will do better after sleeping. This is a great site. Thank you!

Some good websites to try (they offer free trials, so you can test them), are lumosity.com happy-neuron.com Lynn: thanks for your suggestions. Brenda: that makes a lot of sense. Physical exercise is a very important part of the brain health equation.

I am so thrilled that there are big breakthroughs in "Brain Science" I've conducted many non scientific brain tests on myself and can tell you that, each time I do a test right after strenuous physical exercise, I score very well...astounding myself! Fun to test yourself and watch your brain respond...it really does!...and quicker than you might suspect! So thanks for the fun teasers! Hi, this is great.
