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).
My score was 100% omg even I can’t writes with my right hand on keyboard
I love this test and this site. I am actually in real life very ambidextrous and write left handed and so I am always asked the question lefties get asked. Are you left handed? I feel weird to say yes when there are things I do better right handed and like the next time they see me I am doing those things with my right hand. Then they say hey I thought you were left handed? I find myself saying things like no I am sort of devious sinister deceptive person who uses the left hand as some sort of ploy. They always look at me like they are checking me or something. I took this test so I knew how to answer those peoples questions hen they see me using my left hand. now I know I am 96% lefty just for the record.
There needs to be a neutral option. There are several that I literally tried with both and neither felt wrong of weird, so I ended up having to truly think about “would someone who was truly right-handed and had been taught to do these things right-handed be able to do them with their left hand?” Most of the time the answer was no, but it may produce more accurate results to have a true neutral option.
I was at 57% though, so I wasn’t too surprised.
My percent was 59% so does that mean I am mainly left handed or mixed handed
Pretty good test
100% on this test. I’m glad it doesn’t say about using my mouse on my computer, because I have to use my right hand. My mouse is on the right side.
People always ask me why I’m left handed. Does anyone else get this problem?
86% left-handed :’)
I was born in 1950, growing up playing sports was hard, threw baseball with left hand, so I had to take off baseball glove, then put it back on. could not throw with right hand. I eat with left hand as well, when growing up I had to be seated on left so I did not bother other people. My aunt sent me to a tutor one time to see if they could teach me to use my right hand, but it did not work. Growing up in the 1950 and 1960 it was mainly a right hand world for me.
The test has a few drawbacks since for some of the questions like holding a spoon and kicking a soccer ball actually I can do with both.. So there should have been a ‘both’option in all the questions..
In my case, except writing, all activities requiring precision I do with my right part and for those activities demanding strength I do with my left..
