## Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good number memory score?

Most adults can reliably remember around 7 digits — psychologists call this "the magical number seven, plus or minus two". Reaching 9 or 10 digits is an excellent score, and anything above 11 is exceptional.

What does the number memory test measure?

It measures your digit span — the capacity of your short-term (working) memory for sequences. The number shown grows one digit longer each level, and the test ends the first time you type it back incorrectly.

How can I remember longer numbers?

Chunking is the most effective technique: group digits into twos or threes (like a phone number) rather than holding them individually. Saying the chunks to yourself in a rhythm also helps them stick.

## What your digit span means

The number memory test measures your digit span — the longest string of numbers you can recall in order. The average adult manages around seven digits, which is why local phone numbers were historically that length. Digit span is a classic measure of working memory and is used in cognitive assessments because it predicts how well you can hold figures in mind while calculating or reasoning.

### Ways to remember more digits

-   Group the digits into pairs or triples instead of one long line.
-   Say them in a steady rhythm — pattern helps recall.
-   Turn numbers into a memorable date, age or price where you can.
-   Practise regularly; digit span improves with focused repetition.
