I’m confused. How come my original BFI is higher but 2 points than my current. My BFI is 272 is that considered low? What is BfI and how does it work? I’m trying to improve my ACT score does this program help?

Stage: 2
Session number: 2
Average n-back: 5.4
So i’m back on track. Was able to go up to 6n on the first exercise and to 4n in the second. I’m exercising daily, keeping my brain active with chess, go, logic and math, reading lots, sleeping well. I’ve cut down on coffee (from 4 cups a day to 2) and drinking green/black tea instead, and lots of water. I’m feeling great. Wide awake, active, and im starting to notice improvements in memory… I feel quite agile and am very motivated
Thanks for the great program!

Average n-back: 4.28
I could barely get back 4 the last night. This morning I woke up, went for a long distance job, and tried it again. Something amazing happened. I easily got to the 7th back and kept on doing it. However, I got tired after the 10th block and started slacking to 4th back. I hope I actually get something out of this. I’m cutting down on SAT studying for this, hoping this will help better.

Session number: 06
Average n-back: 2.3
Duration (estimate in minutes): 15
After completing my first four sessions in stage three, I was unable to reach N3; this is very discouraging. It seems that my advances are minuscule in comparison to the time spent. Continuing diligently though, with the hope that if consistent, my cognitive abilities will gradually increase.
Over the last several months i have focused on my sleep, nutrition, and exercise. This is beginning to show some promise. Being constant in these areas has afforded me noticeable improvements in my attention, short term memory, and processing speed.
During Session 5,6, finally, I have broken through, to some extent, and was able to advance six times to N3. Obviously I would rather be a N4 or N5, but in time these levels will be attainable.
Merry Christmas to all.

This is my fourth day and I’ve been improving slowly but I am really liking this program; hopefully I’ll reach an average of 3 soon:)
I’m also using this to improve for when I take the SAT. Thanks for the help!
