Thanks to Priceless Joy for the idea to run a fun quiz to see where everyone is at in the left brain/ right brain mix. These are the qualities/skills I posted on Using My Brain this morning. I always knew I was more right brain than left although I was still surprised when I had 30% left brain skills in my tool box. I had 19 right brain and 7 left brain. I would love to know everyone else mix as I think it gives great insight into the person. The more we understand each other the easier, it is to connect and work together. So just for fun—leave a comment below indicating your left brain /right brain mix and if you were surprised by the results.

Wow! I knew I was right brain, but didn’t realize how strongly I was it! I only have 3 left brain characteristics and 18 on the right side! Thanks for posting this, it was fun!
Glad you liked it.
I absolutely love taking these kinds of assessments. So much fun. I’ve always been more of a left brain person, although I do have right brain tendencies at times. 19-left…12-right. Go figure.

Great mix in your toolbox. Thanks for playing.
How I did this I don’t know. I got 16 Right and 16 Left. I thought Science, Math, Mechanical Abilities, were all left brain and I am bad at all three. I’m happy to know I’m not lopsided. Haha!
They are but it is good to be balanced.
Thanks! I hope I answered correctly.
There is no right answer. You decide what qualities are appropriate for you.
Yes, but I may think I have that quality and someone else that knows me says I don’t….???
Doesn’t matter. Its your choice. You can never please everybody anyway.
That is true, I cannot. 🙂 Thank you!
Fun test to take. Results were equal on each side of the brain. Interesting!
Good to know you are balanced.
Ok so apparently according to the comments I am the only unbalanced person, LOL!
No I am very unbalanced but I am good with that. I was surprised I had any left side brain qualities.
Almost half / half – slightly more left-brained than right – interesting for a writer of fiction! I enjoyed this test, ta!
It’s interesting the amount of variety everyone has. Thanks for playing.
I am definitely a right side brain person and sure enough most of the things I agreed with about myself fell on the right side. I love taking tests like this–thanks for sharing 🙂
Glad you liked it. It is interesting thinking about them.
Brilliant FUN! I’m a palindrome. 12 left 21 right LOL And there were some where I was both. When you mentioned ‘classic music’ I thought you meant like oldies (old rock, and stuff from the 20th century. Wasn’t sure.
So no special music pieces with no words by composers like Beethoven.
That was fun and surprising! I seem to be twice as left brained as right brained which I really didn’t expect.
It can be a surprise but for me the more I thought about it the more I realised it was true. I was a greater mix than I thought. Glad you liked it.
great assessment tool! thanks for visiting and following my site. will sure take time and visit yours here. So Im a leftie (18 vs 8). 🙂
Its a fun test that explains a lot of things
