Recognition Tests

I occasionally take silly tests, but this one interested me a bit more because I feel I am terrible at finding objects. The focus of the website is more on faces, but objects are one part of the test (scored separately).
The site itself (and the impairment they talk about) is kind of interesting. The actual test I took starts at http://www.icn.ucl.ac.uk/facetests/.
Out of 20 familiar faces, you correctly responded that you had seen 17 faces before.
Out of 30 unfamiliar faces, you correctly responded that you had NOT seen 28 faces before.
Overall, you got 90% correct! The average score on this test is 85% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was 72.
I did better than average on face recognition, which mildly surprised me. But I haven't noticed any particular problems in this area, so I guess it's not that weird. I just thought I was average, but I've had little to base that on.
Out of 20 familiar eyeglasses, you correctly responded that you had seen 12 eyeglasses before.
Out of 30 unfamiliar eyeglasses, you correctly responded that you had NOT seen 27 eyeglasses before.
Overall, you got 78% correct! The average score on this test is 86% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was 18.
I did better than I thought I would on object recognition (78% correct), but worse than 72% of the population, which surprised me not at all.
When I worked in a grocery store as a bagger, occasionally I would get sent to do price checks -- someone would hand me an item and tell me to go find it (and the price). These kind of terrified me because I knew I was so very bad at finding things. I could be holding the item in question, and standing in front of more of that item on a shelf, and I'd just be looking back and forth without seeing the match, somehow. I don't know why. But if you want to send someone to find something, someone besides me is a good gamble.
Out of 12 sets of names, you correctly chose the familiar name12 times.
Overall, you got 100% correct! The average score on this test is 77% correct. Your percentile rank on this test was 93.
I did perfect on the word part, which was better than I thought I'd do, but not a lot. It's not completely surprising. I can usefully cram-study for certain tests and do OK. I can remember that stuff for a brief while.
Apparently 7% of the population gets this 100% correct.
