- jimmaswell 8y agoI'm certain they have different tests for people who don't have such arithmetic down.
- wrycoder 8y agoActually, that's on a standard cognition test. Other questions include identify pictures of animals, "what date is today", "Remember these five words (and get asked them at the end of the test), an "a is to b as c is to" question, etc. The assumption is that people over 50 in the USA can do simple arithmetic, because they all went to elementary school. Sadly, that assumption may have to change.
