Have been using MLS now since mid-November.
I've also been training my working memory with i3 Mindware since that time. That should make the gains more quantifyable.
From the end of November until mid December, I did 40 dual n-back sesssions, on the 1g difficulty (which is harder than standard n-back), and I ended up with around 6.5-back on average.
The results after 20 sessions can be seen here:
I do not have a picture of the completed 40 sessions.
After 40 sessions on 1g, I turned to the 2g version of n-back (2g is harder than 1g, and 1g is harder than the standard n-back), on double speed, and got up to a 5.5 n-back average:
One reason the 2g version of n-back is much harder, because you have to focus on numbers, locations, and sounds, all at the same time.
The reason I was doing all the brain training is because I was planning going into management consulting. However, that plan has been short-circuited, because someone I know asked me to start a company on a business model that he's already succesful with, and let me help him so that we can togeter sell the company. He needs help in terms of the time investment to be able to pull off a sale within a year.
And if I do sell that company, it will help me getting a job in management consultancy / strategy within a year.
