    It was mentioned in my friends report she has a very poor memory now we know it was dementia ...in the report it said memory is very poor couldn't recall what school was attended and couldn't remember what exams was...these questions was based on poor memory .

    There's a number of memory questions they use, and that one she asked you was a memory question .
