9/14 for me.
I'm similar to some of you for the face recognition thing. I remember acquaintances from elementary (20+ years) to high school and I can recall where I met them, but not always the names. I can even recall I have met certain clients/acquaintances I didn't interact with as long as I see their faces for a few moments. It's easier to recognize people from Jr High onwards as it's more recent but also I think their faces changed the least as they grew up.
However for this test, I think it threw me off that it was 2D and then alternate 2D angles/distorted pictures. It didn't feel as a recognizer test from that point on. To me, it felt more like whether you can create a 3D mental image of a face from 2D still, convert it to memory, then recall it and apply it like a pattern when looking at other 2D images of a face. Useful for the police line up situations (as mentioned on the site) if looking at one crappy security camera still to another. I feel facial recognition for seeing people in real life is a little different than what this test is though.
I wonder if I would do better if there was a 3D one/video clips to stills, but I kinda agree with others that it got boring and tedious half way through.
