I highly value this site and the training, but I honestly get little if anything out of the overall BPI. Why?

It is pretty obvious to me that during certain times of day, after certain foods, and so on, my overall cognitive abilities change radically. I can get radically different scores on particular games, and I actually make use of certain games (e.g. Raindrops) to help decide the level of challenge I should risk taking on at particular times.

Can I use the BPI for anything like this? Absolutely not, as far as I can tell. It ticks up a little bit, or it ticks down a little, never by very much at a time. It always seems to be on a generally upward trajectory (which, frankly, is a little suspicious).

BPI is compared to “IQ,” but it really seems to be nothing like IQ. If I could quickly get an IQ score at the times I am interested in seeing how many cylinders I was firing on, THAT would be useful. BPI seems to provide nothing of the kind.

I have had a seizure disorder for over 20 years. A few years ago, I went on Topamax for seizures and it dumbed me down significantly. I was on it for a year and a half and I never fully recovered.

As a result, I have problems focusing, my memory is terrible, I have word recall issues and lose my attention very easily.

I am hoping that your site will help.

Almavirag: Try any one of these games in order to help your concetration. Even if the game you chose to play is not intended for concetration improvement, it really will help. I have only had an account for two days and my focus has already improved.
