  11. I understand this to be very interesting as I am keen to learn about dementia and all the neuropsychological disorders. The quiz was amazing no doubt in that but I think before the quiz the description should have been a little more informative as not everyone approaching this site would know about these mental illnesses and would not be able to solve the quiz. But yes quiz can be a way of learning. Good job ,well done.

  13. Really informative quiz, it was interactive and playful and not too down cheery, so great work with the balance but i feel most of the answers to quiz were all of the above or none of the above type so maybe that’s something that can be improved. Best of luck, great job
