Looks like im the worst so far with a pittyful 6/20.
Allthough I do blame the fact that it was about 2:45am when I did the test. I have been awake since 10am and I only got 5 hours sleep then :sleep: :spin: :sleep:
I thought I would have done better on the colour/word association question, I recently helped a friend for her phsycology coursework by doing the exact same thing and scored the best time with no mistakes.
Tried the quiz a second time and got 20/20 and I rushed that one aswel.

yes but some of those questions such as the colour association one I mentioned are hard to rush esp when the answer to that one is Random (or at least it appeard to be)

Well I got 9/20 but frankly I think some of the questions sucked!

The King Kong/ Godzilla size question is almost impossible unless you guess lucky or know it's a faked perspective.

There isn't enough time to do the "coloured words" question, even on the second time through I still ran out.

If you don't eat the stuff in the "taste" questions, how the hell are you supposed to know which combinations will taste best?

The "scale of sounds" was just a matter of trial and error (and not *all* motorbikes are noisy!)

I'm also not entirely convinced by the "scale of notes" question as it doesn't replay the notes to let you check. I've just gone through it several times and it certainly sounds to me like there's more bass in the first sound than in the last.

Overall I'd give the test about 11 out of 20!!

I think the whole thing is more to show you how your senses can play tricks on you. I scored 11 out of 20, knowing what some of the tricks are...
