I just took an online test to determine which side of the brain you favor, right or left. Here are my results:
Right Brain/ Left Brain Quiz
The higher of these two numbers below indicates which side of your brain has dominance in your life. Realising your right brain/left brain tendency will help you interact with and to understand others.
Left Brain Dominance: Left Brain Dominance 5/10
Right Brain Dominance: Right Brain Dominance 5/10
What does this mean? Here’s the breakdown:
Left Hemisphere Style

- Responds to verbal instructions
- Problem solves by logically and sequentially looking at the parts of things
- Looks at differences
- Is planned and structured
- Prefers established, certain information
- Prefers talking and writing
- Prefers multiple choice tests
- Controls feelings
- Prefers ranked authority structures
Sequential
- Is a splitter: distinction important
- Is logical, sees cause and effect
Right Hemisphere Style
Draws on unbounded qualitative patterns that are not organized into sequences, but that cluster around images
Intuitive
- Responds to demonstrated instructions
- Problem solves with hunches, looking for patterns and configurations
- Looks at similarities
- Is fluid and spontaneous
- Prefers elusive, uncertain information
- Prefers drawing and manipulating objects
- Prefers open ended questions
- Free with feelings
- Prefers collegial authority structures
Simultaneous

Brains are cool! Take the test for yourself; it only takes two minutes.
