I forgot to add my brain is 21 years younger than my body... and yes, fuck the yellow stars.

My brain age is 31. Actual age is 51. Hmm.

And yes, fuck the yellow stars.

I scored very well, but I don't understand the criteria. Is this from a "legit" source?

I question almost every type of "brain measurement" or the accompanying catch-all descriptors like "age" of your brain. Of course I couldn't be arsed to actually read the page, but I can think of half a dozen meaning for brain "age" and every measure would be different.

What it all boils down to, for me, is that people can be vastly different. Different learning styles, different thinking styles, certainly very different ways of expressing meaning, or deriving meaning from context. We're all so different. How can that be, you ask--given our common DNA and ties of culture, education and language? Well I think the human being is an "adaptability machine" --what we do is improvise, specialize, and make up new things. As many new things as there are people. How can you measure people against each other?
