What it trains

This sprint leans on the scanning skills you use to find one thing in a busy scene.

  • Visual search speed
  • Selective attention
  • Resisting visual clutter

Honest note: you mostly get faster at this exact task, and the score is not an IQ measure or a diagnosis.

Tips to spot more

A steady scanning pattern beats random darting.

  • Sweep left to right, row by row
  • Let the different shape of the T pop out rather than checking each cell
  • Stay calm - rushing makes you miss the obvious ones

The honest way to read your score

Your best count is a personal benchmark, not a ranking against anyone else. Expect it to wobble day to day, and only compare yourself to your own past runs.
