Short-Term Memory Quiz

Marijuana and other drugs can mess with your short-term memory. And a good short-term memory is necessary for many of life’s basic tasks, such as remembering a new friend’s phone number and recalling vocabulary words for a test. Here’s a quick quiz to check your short-term memory. You will be given 30 seconds to look at a list of 15 words. Then, you’ll be asked to recall as many of the words as you can, and be given a score. Good luck!
