The test is free, and you can even see your basic results without entering an email address.

I took the test and according to the results I am predominantly left brained.

Here is the breakdown of my score:

You responded as a right brained person to 3 questions, and you responded as a left brained person to 16 questions. According to the Hemispheric Dominance test, you use the left side or your brain the most.

I’m not too surprised as I can’t draw, paint, sculpt or create anything resembling art. I love math, science and can spend the entire day doing research. My scores are somewhat close together, so I would assume that’s why I am a daydreamer and don’t wear a watch. (Of course these are all my musings and have no scientific basis.)

Take the test and leave a comment with your score. Does it match your personality?
