50 - 50

Weird though, 5 years ago it probably would have come out quite a bit different.

Cheers,

Max

For the record:

L == 0.40
R == 0.60

Gender == M
Field == IT // sorta - actually, software

(and 60% weird)
=====================================

Minus_Human,

I wouldn't say it trashes your friend's theory at all. You're naturally 40 / 60, but you work all day every day exercising that 40. You just need to exercise that 60 side a bit more. Fortunately, nothing in life is that cut - and - dried. (curious expression, I've always thought) Music is a melding of creativity and logic. So is IT. So is cooking. Or painting. Anything involving logic is enhanced with creativity. Anything creative is usually built on logic.

But what do I know? According to the other test, I wig out circus freaks. :shock:

10% left, 90% right. I'm not sure I trust that, though.

30% weird. "Not enough to scare other people, but sometimes you scare yourself."

I don't accept that, either. I'm weirder than that.

I would've thought 50-50 with me, but I got 35 left - 65 right.

The 'messy desk' - that's an IT thing, right? (please tell me that's right or 'correct' :) )

Me - 55% left, 45% right.

PLUS, I'm left-handed, and we're supposed to be more 'right-brained.'

40 Left, 60 Right
But my birthday test is scarily accurate in certain places!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"You have a Type A personality so big it makes other Type A's shrink away in shame." There's no answer to that.

"You never shy away from adversity - and you love to tackle impossible problems." - like playing guitar!!!

"Failure is not an option for you, and more than a few people are put off by your ego." I don't mind failure - it's just that someone else has to be responsible for it!!!

"You tend to be controlling, and you hate leaving anything up to chance." Sooooooooooooo true, but sooooooooo wrong..

"Your strength: Your bold approach to life" - "bold" or "irresponsible"?

"Your weakness: You don't accept help" - not even from the SatNav!!!!!!!!!!

My wife says that my only weakness is that I don't believe that I have any.

I started with nothing - and I've still got most of it left.

yes - forgot about being left handed. I was 50/50, maybe that's not to bad for a lefty anyway... ;)

:idea: Maybe that's another intersting poll once we're at the statistics here - left or right handed? I guess someone can dig up the proportion in the population and we can have a check whether we are overrepresented in here. My guess is we are...
Didn't mean to highjack the tread ...

55 left and 45 right.

"Sounds" reasonable to me.
Even if you have a predisposition one way or the other, it doesn't show how your choices and environment may assist in developing the other side.

Music and other creative arts are both left and right.

Both are highly mathematical and highly intuitive.

I think for anything as complex as songwriting, it is practice which makes perfect (if perfect even exists).

scratch that makes sense, kinda logic acually :lol:

Demo the messy desk is certainly an IT thing, i'm actually at the office now and as i look around it's a total mess. And ofcourse the only person that kind find anything in this mess would be me :D

I acually did the test again, there were some questions were i thought both answers describe me.
This time i ended with 30 Left and 70 right.

25% left, 75% right here. The whole left vs right hemisphere is utter nonsense though.
