I got a 3. Took me maybe 5 minutes. I bet I could have gotten a 0 if I tried a bit more.

This is quite awesome!

I also got a 4. I imagine there has to be some margin for error based on what spectra your monitor is adjusted to.

Your score: 56
Gender: Male
Age range: 40-49
Best score for your gender and age range: 0
Highest score for your gender and age range: 1344
Only one problem with this result.

It gives a best & lowest score but it would be much better to give an average over all the people that have taken the test.

also Its more fun trying to get the highest score you can.

So far the best I have done is 1187.

Nailed it on the first try:

To be fair, I've had lots of practice looking at color swatches from Pantone, DuPont, Sherwin Williams, Roland, etc.

The problem with this test is that it is dependent upon your computer monitor to deliver accurate colors. Most people have inexpensive monitors, and even those with accurate monitors rarely have had them calibrated with a spectrometer.

As such, we have no way of knowing if it is our eyes or the monitor that are inaccurate.
