How good is your memory?

Test Number 1: https://annex.exploratorium.edu/exhibits/common_cents/c.html 

This test required me to guess the correct object among similar objects. I obviously got it wrong it was super hard as i had to choose the correct penny among similar Pennys. I honestly could distinguish some of them different from the rest, but it was really hard to determine the rest as they appealed to me all the same. I think it is a good memory test as It does challenge a person to distinguish objects that we see in everyday life. 

Test 2: http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/puzmatch2.html

This test required me to look at a variety of pictures and after 30 seconds list them out. I only got about 5 correct out of about like 15 pictures. As i was typing each one my memory of the pictures kept decreasing. It was very hard as there were a lot of pictures that i had to tie my head around. This test is valid because it correctly test if we have a strong short memory i surely do not, but other people could have remembered all 15 pictures. 

Test 3: http://faculty.washington.edu/chudler/java/facemem.html

This test required me to correctly build up the face that i saw for about 10 seconds. I got 6 out 10 features correct. I was really surprised that i got about half of the face correct because everything was so detailed. I feel like if the faces were not as detailed i would have been able to match every feature. This test is valid as it required the brain to remember every single detail of the face, basically testing the how good is your memory, in which many people cold possibly get a perfect score on this test.
