Default Mental Age Assessment

The following was developed as a mental age assessment by the School of
Psychiatry at Harvard University . Take your time and see if you can
read each line aloud without a mistake. The average person over 40 years
of age cannot do this!

1. This is this cat.
2. This is is cat.
3. This is how cat.
4. This is to cat.
5. This is keep cat.
6. This is an cat.
7. This is old cat.
8. This is fart cat.
9. This is busy cat.
10. This is for cat.
11. This is forty cat.
12. This is seconds cat.


Now go back and read the third word in each line from the top down and I
bet you cannot resist passing it on.

No worries Mandy, I did exactly the same and was really quite proud of myself that at 40+ I didn't make any mistakes
