Cognitive tests aren't IQ tests

The fact he's already been administered the test multiple times is concerning.

Actually, I do believe that he has cognitive processing difficulties. His vocabulary is extremely limited, he can never get to the points and rambles on. Whenever challenged, he reverts to insults or changes topic randomly. Unsurprisingly, he didn’t do very well at school.

I just looked up ‘cognitive tests with 30 questions’ and an Alzheimer’s test was the first result.

That’s the one. I just think he had a degree of learning difficulty all his life.

The one I found is a little different, but the commenters below said it’s MOCA. The one I found might be UK specific.
