About the Tests
What cognitive domains do your tests measure?
Our tests assess five core cognitive domains: Memory (retention and recall), Focus (attention and concentration), Decision Making (logical reasoning and judgment), Reaction Speed (processing speed and response time), and Emotional Intelligence (emotional awareness and regulation).
How many questions are in the Master Cognitive Test?
The Master Cognitive Test contains 55 questions (11 questions per domain across 5 domains). It takes approximately 10-15 minutes to complete and provides a comprehensive assessment of your cognitive abilities.
How many total questions does MindMaara have?
Our question bank contains over 300 unique questions across all cognitive domains. This variety ensures that each test experience is different and prevents memorization from affecting your results.
Are these tests clinically validated?
Our tests are designed based on established cognitive science principles and research. However, they are intended for educational and self-improvement purposes, not clinical diagnosis. For medical concerns about cognitive health, please consult a healthcare professional.
Scoring & Results
How does the grading system work?
We use a letter grade system: A+ (85-100%), A (75-84%), B (65-74%), C (55-64%), D (45-54%), and F (below 45%). These grades help you quickly understand your performance level in each cognitive domain.
What do percentile rankings mean?
Percentile rankings show how your score compares to other test takers. For example, scoring in the 75th percentile means you performed better than 75% of people who took the same test. This gives context to your raw score.
Can I retake tests to improve my score?
Yes, you can retake any test as many times as you want. For the most accurate assessment of your baseline abilities, we recommend waiting at least 24 hours between attempts on the same test to minimize practice effects.
Brain Training
What is the difference between tests and training?
Tests measure your current cognitive abilities and provide scores. Training exercises are interactive games designed to challenge and strengthen specific cognitive skills through repeated practice. Tests assess; training improves.
How often should I practice brain training?
For optimal results, we recommend 5-10 minutes of daily practice. Consistency matters more than duration. Regular short sessions are more effective than occasional long sessions for building cognitive skills.
What are the difficulty levels in training?
Each training exercise offers three difficulty levels: Easy (for beginners or warm-up), Medium (balanced challenge), and Hard (for advanced users seeking maximum challenge). Start at a comfortable level and progress as you improve.
Privacy & Data
Is my data private and secure?
Yes, privacy is central to our design. All test results and progress data are stored locally in your browser by default. We do not collect personal information, and we do not sell or share any user data.
Can I delete my test history?
Since data is stored locally in your browser, you can clear it anytime by clearing your browser data for mindmaara.com. This will remove all stored test results and progress from your device.
