To test the Mozart effect I took 3 groups of 5 people, these 15 people were all in grade five. I created a three page test to test if the IQ level raised. The test included a memory test with images, a memory test with words and a math test. They had 45seconds to memorize the words and images and then 50seconds to write them down. For the math test they had 10mins to fully complete as  much as they could, the math was grade 5 level math problems and some riddles to test there brain. 

They then had a break of 3days. After those three days they took the test again each group was separated into three groups. Each group was giving a certain type of music to be tested with, Classical, Rock, Pop. For the memory test they were tested with the assigned music in the background. And then they did the math test with the music behind them, I would then see if they're mark would go up most in memory or in math. I would then make the average again but this time with the new test results. The marks would either go up or not at all.
