Would you pass the 'Trump' dementia test?

As many of you may know, Donald Trump had to sit a cognitive assessment test to make sure he's of sound mind.

Perhaps surprisingly, Mr Trump scored a perfect 30 out of 30.

The Montreal Cognitive Assessment helps health professionals figure out if someone has healthy cognitive function, and it covers memory, speech, the ability to learn and retain information.

It's a pretty easy test and it takes about 10 minutes to complete. Why not give it a go and tell us what you scored?

Ha ha ha ...... I have enough cognition to **NOT** signup for that.

Folks, when you go to that link you'll find  they want LOTS of info. about YOU ...... full name, contact details, country you're in, how you make your living and it's COMPULSORY to give them your personal details otherwise you don't get to do the assessement.

So if you signup, then I bet for the next 50 years you will be constantly barraged with followup sales pitches and your name and personal details will be linked to them. But, but, but you'll say "the box that said "receive updates" .... I did not tick it".  Well, they've arranged it so you have to UN-tick it (nice "business" technique that one). And even if you UN-tick it I bet LOTS of advertising notices will still find their way to "you".

Ignore the above link.

Cheers Jim.

 

lol - nice to know I wasn't the "only one" who felt the same as you JimD ... gave it a miss as soon as I saw what was required!  Mighta' been a bit of "fun" apart from that ..........      :-)

P.S.  Any reason you not "JimB"?   lol lol -     just teasing ..........................

 

 

Five free tests from the Alzheimer's Reading Room. Click here.

These five memory tests for Alzheimer's and dementia are designed to detect early signs of cognitive impairment, memory loss, or problems with judgement or thinking.

NB: I found the use of the ‘Drawing a clock’ test interesting because as an ex teacher I remember a similar test used to check visual-constructive abilities in young children.

• SAGE examples here. Read T&Cs and click Agree to see test list.

I used the NZ example as it is the most closely aligned to Australia.

Trump didn't "HAVE TO SIT" a coginitive (sic) test, he voluntarily offered to take the 'cognitive' assessment test in response to the anti-Trump hysteria about his mental fitness for office.  He certainly proved them wrong.

Agree Knight Templar ... much as I am not a fan of DT.

Agree also Knight Templar. I am over the Trump Bashing. I have friends in USA who have said that so far, things are very positive ! Unemployment the lowest in 15 years, Sharemarket rising, general feeling, also positive. Stupid "Reports" of him watching TV for 17 hours a day ! Maybe we need a "Trump" here in Australia !!!

Trump sure proved them wrong

I think the test was rigged, no one in their right mind would have a blonde comb over like that LOL

It's not a test, more like a public relations exercise to make people feel at ease.

trump the wrecking ball.  just see how well he is doing (not)!
