Be careful
With a score like that , you could learn more then you need.
Always good to have a reserve.

I kind of chuckled at my results. I've had a couple of these tests over the years (the company I worked for a while back was a big fan of these and those personality tests). I've always shown up as a Visually Tactile learner with Auditory barely breaking into the top 3. But on this test, some of the questions really skewed things for the Auditory team.Although we have a few outliers, I'm seeing a trend here:
This group has a tilt towards the auditory.
If this was a brick layers forum, I suspect the results might be different.
I'm thinking if Griff is following this, he might start offering C/Ds instead of DVDs.
NO, don't do that!Hmm. Maybe I should just quit trying to learn guitar and take up painting or photography or something.
Your Scores:
You are a Visual learner! Check out the information below, or view all of the learning styles.
- Auditory: 35%
- Visual: 55%
- Tactile: 10%
Visual
If you are a visual learner, you learn by reading or seeing pictures. You understand and remember things by sight. You can picture what you are learning in your head, and you learn best by using methods that are primarily visual. You like to see what you are learning.
As a visual learner, you are usually neat and clean. You often close your eyes to visualize or remember something, and you will find something to watch if you become bored. You may have difficulty with spoken directions and may be easily distracted by sounds. You are attracted to color and to spoken language (like stories) that is rich in imagery.
Here are some things that visual learners like you can do to learn better:
Remember that you need to see things, not just hear things, to learn well.
- Sit near the front of the classroom. (It won't mean you're the teacher's pet!)
- Have your eyesight checked on a regular basis.
- Use flashcards to learn new words.
- Try to visualize things that you hear or things that are read to you.
- Write down key words, ideas, or instructions.
- Draw pictures to help explain new concepts and then explain the pictures.
- Color code things.
- Avoid distractions during study times.
On the other hand, this explains why I found learning to read music in my classical guitar course in college many years ago really easy, but I've struggled over the last 20 years to develop an ear to just learn songs by listening to them.
Makes sense, I was kinda thinking the same thing.I kind of chuckled at my results. I've had a couple of these tests over the years (the company I worked for a while back was a big fan of these and those personality tests). I've always shown up as a Visually Tactile learner with Auditory barely breaking into the top 3. But on this test, some of the questions really skewed things for the Auditory team.
"You won a contest, so which do you choose? A ball, a music cd, or a poster." The music cd every single time because I dig music. If it was an audio book or something not musically related, it wouldn't be the cd. "You go out with friends, where do you go? A movie, a concert, or whatever the third option was." The concert because we all dig music, and most concerts you can go be loud and have a good time while you're there. They kick you out of movies for that kind of thing.
There were 4 or 5 questions like this, that specified music as the auditory option, that I thought were not that objective and would lead to a higher auditory score. I think a LOT of us are going to lean towards the auditory style according to this test. Not because we actually lean that way, but because we're all musicians, wannabe musicians, or, at the very least, more musically aspirated than your average person (since we're out to make music in some way instead of just listen to it).
- Auditory: 30%
- Visual: 45%
- Tactile: 25%
I'm a little surprised my Tactile was only 15%, because once I've studied something if I don't get my hands on it I don't retain itI kind of chuckled at my results.
