Not just that, it appears with a usual one-word remark that tells people how they are the mental age that they are.

It is not any random number that the test throws at you. Rather it makes you walk through a number of questions.

Based on the answer of those questions, user’s age is calculated. And that’s how it became a mental age test.

How can you take the Mental Age test?

TikTok users discovered the Mental Age Test on a website called AREALME.COM

The origin of the ‘ARealMe’ website is Japanese, published in November 2013. It has three sections titled Trending, Featured and Popular Series.

Within the Trending and Featured section, one can find other tests like the ‘Gay Test’, ‘Sexuality Test’ and ‘Spirit Animal Quiz’.

This is also where you’ll come across the mental age test. It is quite easy to attempt.

It’ll ask you a number of questions followed by a step that records your real age, which also gives an option of keeping it secret.

After hitting the Start button, basic questions would appear. Like:



Finally, based on the answers of such questions, your mental age will be calculated. And that’s how it’ll appear:

People are then posting the results of their test on various social media platforms.

Is it a Tiktok trend now?

There might be an option of sharing the results of mental age on Facebook and Twitter, this is not the case with TikTok.

So, Tiktokers are sharing the results in video format which is slowly marching towards a trend:

People are posting the screenshots of their results and compiling it in a video following an image of themselves reflecting their real age.

While some people are close to what their real age is when it comes to maturity. Others are downright, as the test would call them, ‘over worried’.

Therefore, the trend is quite easy and fun to attempt unlike other dangerous Tiktok challenges. It also takes you down the memory lane when you’d play such games as kids.

Probably the reason why this test is gaining a lot of traction too.
