I always insist I never forget a face. Eyes and mouths are so unique and personal I find it the best way to remember someone. For some reason, names aren’t that important to me, like meaningless labels, so I find it hard remembering them. Still faces are so personal. I’d much rather someone forgot my name but remembered my face. Wouldn’t you?

BBC Science: The Face Memory Test
This test assesses your ability to remember how long ago something happened – your ‘temporal’ memory. If you’re tired you won’t be as good at remembering when you saw or did something.

Results: I recognised 100{a9f0d31f6175b3e4775e11a66c07db268fb74408d6095f6b46eeec420c0e9f62} of the faces. However with 3 faces, I couldn’t remember where I recognised them from. What’s your score? No cheating…
