Are you right or left brained?

Okay, found this totally cool web site.

Check out some of the tests, especially the dancer. This determines if you are right- or left-brained or both. Also, on the Free Career Info, there is a color test that will tell you what your best career choice is. (Found out I am totally left-brained, and I am in the right place -- hospital job, but the wrong career field -- medical typist. My best career choice: Medical research).

So have fun with the games, and go for it.

Augh. That car game is one of those fascist games that makes you restart if you fail a level...

That left/right brain thing is messed up.

I keep seeing it both ways...but I think it's deliberately changing...

I seem to be right- brained; I already knew this, but the thing was funny even so.

Ironic; a different test I took told me I was right-brained; this one told me I was left-brained.

This one said I was right-brained, which I was not surprised. However, I focused for 5 minutes and it won't turn the other way. Yet, whenever I started to read, it went the other direction. When I stopped reading, it continued to turn clockwise..odd.

Dear folks,

If it goes both ways, that is supposed to mean you are both-brained. BTW Aaronee, I was always told I was right-brained, too, but the test shows definite left-brained. I cannot even get it to go the other way. The test I got a kick out of was the color dot career test. That's pretty accurate. I also expected Gothicus Maximumus and some of the other resident 'geniuses' on G.net to go for the International High IQ Society thing. Thought it was elitist, but then that's just sour grapes. As Agent Smart would say, "Missed it by THAT much."

I bet twenty bucks to everyone that the majority in here are going to get right-brained.
I know we're supposed to be all very different and shit, and we at least don't fall into that many number of conventionalities and norms a subculture forum with a name as specigic as gothic.net might expect...

but I still bet most will get right-brained.

Case in point, I got right-brained too.

I can see the dancer go either way so I guess that my brain is ambidextrous, yay?

I can get her to go both ways. But I saw it anti-clockwise (left-brain) first, before it flipped over to the right-brain way.

The left-brain characteristics fit me more, though.

I see it both ways... but I have always been more "middle of the road"

I am very artistic, but I am not emotional. Logic rules my life. At the same time, I am very creative... so... yeah. In the middle.

My brain goes both ways, which makes sense. My color pattern thingy was OK, except that it said red was my 10th favorite color, and that must be wrong. Most of the careers I've considered as well as a few surprising alternatives (business management at number one?) were in my top 40. My IQ score on the short test (13 minutes) was 144...not bad.

Liked the color thing, because even though I surprised myself with a few pink spheres (yucch), I came out blue/green all the way. Totally not surprised at my #1. Work as a medical typist, which the great Bugs Bunny would describe a as job so boring it 'boggledeth the mindeth.' Not surprising to find out I am in the right field (medicine), but in the wrong line of work (should be in medical research). (Ironically, I worked my way through college working as a librarian. Should've stuck with that).

I think I'm left brained...but with the dancer I saw it both ways. It finally settled on clockwise though.

I think you're right because I see it the same way. The dancer will spin counter-clockwise for about 10 seconds or so and then in a matter of half a second, she's going clockwise. Hmm....

i think if you can make it turn both ways, it means you're right brained... at least that's what a facebook aplication about the dancer says
