[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cognition peaks in your mid 20s. That is the best cognitive function you will ever have! Age gives you more life experience and so you can use your cognitive function differently but it does decline. People misunderstand the brain keeps developing until your mid 20s thing. The brain is very developed before that but the prefrontal cortex peaks in function and is at its best in your mid20s[/quote] My HS/early college BF was a maths prodigy, including being selected for the US International Mathematical Olympiad team. He started college as a maths major, intending to get a PhD in order to teach and do research. He pivoted to pre-med half way through college as he believed mathematicians peak in their mid to late 20s and he didn’t think he had the chops for it. “I’m just not smart enough.” Now he is nearing retirement, spends his free time hiking, and dabbles in maths problems and occasionally Wordle.[/quote]
