About This Quiz

Most left-brain or right-brain quizzes ask whether you prefer maths or art, and you know which answer is which before you pick it. This one never asks. It asks what you do with a recipe that says "season to taste", a bus that has stopped showing up on the sign, a shelf that is very slightly not level. Those small moments sort out four ways of meeting a problem: checking it, feeling it, splitting the difference, or going round the side. You get one of four, written as a read on you rather than a neuroscience verdict. Twelve questions, about three minutes.

Sample Questions

  • 1.the recipe just says "season to taste"
  • 2.a word you've written a thousand times suddenly looks wrong
  • 3.a jigsaw turns out to be missing one piece
  • 4.you walk past a house you used to live in

Frequently Asked Questions

why doesn't it ask whether i like maths or art?▼

Because a question like that tells you which answer is the left brain and which is the right before you choose. These twelve ask about a jigsaw with a piece missing, a pen in a long meeting and a noise the car didn't make yesterday. Every answer still leads to a result, you just cannot see which one while you pick.

is being left-brained or right-brained real?▼

Not in the way the quiz name suggests. The two hemispheres do specialise in some tasks: language leans left in most people and some kinds of attention lean right. But a 2013 University of Utah study published in PLOS ONE looked at brain scans from 1,011 people and found no evidence that individuals use one whole side more than the other. Treat your result as a read on your habits, not on your anatomy.

which results can i get?▼

Four: Left Brain, Right Brain, Balanced Brain and Wildcard Brain. Each one describes how you tend to meet a small everyday problem, with one line you probably won't enjoy reading.

does the order of the answers give anything away?▼

No. Over the twelve questions each result sits in each of the four answer slots exactly three times, and never in the same slot twice in a row, so where an option appears tells you nothing about where it leads. The whole thing takes about three minutes.
