a fun test about face recognition abilities

57% I thought I would do better since faces are a small special interest of mine (a sub interest to history). But I guess it makes sense. The test was quite difficult. At some point my brain overloaded and everyone started looking the same. Even men and women. I could do better telling animals from people though. ;D
 
Didn't do great with the difference between anger and disgust. And surprise or contempt. That's why l just ask people outright what they think because some of us don't have expressive faces. Overly botoxed woman come to mind.

This lady was intent on me getting rid of my frown line. l thought why. I can frown when people think they are going to talk to me like complete strange men. Okay- 69%
 
I pressed the button but got this

This test was pretty difficult but eh...I'll take my score as it is. I lost interest about halfway through anyways.
 
I had my wife and son do it, who are both quite social, NT, and pretty good with faces. They both said this test was really hard and they got 55% and 59% on it.

I don't think this test was made to gauge the average person's ability to recognize faces. I think it was deliberately made very hard because they're looking for super recognizers.
 
I'm surprised I did so well. 68% but I felt like I was guessing most of the time and just went by my first impulses without thinking about them.
This is exactly how I felt. I got 61%, but I guessed my way through the last section.
