I was really surprised that I did so much better on the word pairs than the abstract art and the faces because frankly I felt like I was taking a wild guess at most of it. The face thing was easier at first but then when they showed a face I had seen before but not in the most recent grouping I had a tendency to pick that face. I still don't think that test is an adequate test for the inability to recognize very familiar faces some people have.

That make sense. I'm good with language, but I also such at it in oddly specific ways, terrible with faces, and have very good visual memory - pneumonic devices that involve verbal connections just don't work well for me.
