This simple survey will tell you how left-handed you are and give you an overall score you can compare to the thousands of others who have taken the test.
You can see our analysis of the test results so far here.
So go ahead and tick the options for which hand you use for various things and see how you rate overall…
How left handed are you?
We all have our own view of whether we are left-handed or not and, ultimately, that is the the test - if you consider yourself to be left-handed then you are! That said, most people are mixed in their handedness and it is rare for people to do everything with just one hand or side of their body. Our test below will show which side you use for various tasks and how consistent you are in the use of your hands. It will also give you give you an overall score out of 100 for your level of left-handedness and you can see how you compare to other people. To get the overall score, we have weighted the various factors so, for example, writing left-handed gets a far higher weighting in the overall score than which way you hold a bat two-handed (see this page for more information on how we did this).
Lol im 90% + leftie!!! I always thought im 100% leftie but there’s some things ill do with my right
I am 95% left handed but open doors and do gymnastics with my right hand. I’m not that bad at writing with my right hand either.
To be honest, I thought I’d be more left handed then this BUT it was a great test!
As a violinist, you should make an optional section for different instruments. Such as, what position do you play a flute, pointing left or right? Or which hand holds the bow when playing violin (for me, right.) and so on. Like guitar positions, etc.
I normally use both hands, when I’m brushing my hair, and brushing my teeth. I use both hands for scissors, too. If the page I am flipping is on the right, I use my right hand. If the page I am flipping is on the left, I use my left hand. I don’t just reach over, that’s unnecessary movement. It’s not efficient.
I agree with you! When I brush my hair, I switch hands for different sides of my head. Same with flipping pages.
Tht was fun 😎
Great quiz!!!
I came up as 70% left-handed, but I believe it is actually higher. This test doesn’t take into account that many of us have learned to adapt. I automatically use scissors with my right hand (for example) because left ones are nearly impossible to find in my small town.
I’m 95% right handed, but I Box in a left handed stance. I don’t really understand why but southpaw feels so much more natural.
I thoughtI was a righty my entire life, but when I took this test, it said I was 53% lefty! Which actually explains a lot because whenever I do the little every day things with my left, it feels normal. I’m gad to be 50/50
