Re: Check your mental age
What's your mental age, bobbym? Based on their comment at the end, you should be close to being the person with highest mental age ever.

Re: Check your mental age
Oh, I thought you skipped doing the test because you thought you already knew your mental age.
Hm, if you really got that answer, which I doubt, something is wrong with the test.

Re: Check your mental age
I would say so, I am much larger than any 3 year old I have ever seen, therefore it should follow that my mental age be much larger also.

There was a link on that page to check one's EQ. They said my EQ was 20. Is it bad to have a low EQ?

If we assume that mental age is related to size of brain, then that would make you something like a hippopotamus

Sorry for that but, it may interest you to know, the gods of bobbym protection punished me straight away. As I typed that I spilt tea over my laptop.

Hmmm, they have miniature hippopotami do they not?
Look how small this one is,

40 what?

I would estimate that 97.4% of the people who have made disparaging remarks concerning me have gone totally unscathed, most have even prospered. Perhaps it was just a coincidence.

Re: Check your mental age
Hi Agnishom
Have you tried the IQ test. It seems to be very flawed.

Re: Check your mental age
Yes, it is really very flawed. I believe I answered all the questions correctly, Still I got 120.
40 something is your mental age, bobbym. Or something less than 60
