WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

If you ended up with mostly Bs throughout the quiz, that means you are right brained.

People who are right brained are naturally creative, with active imaginations.

These people are drawn to art, performance, and music, and often like to be spontaneous.

If you tended to choose As, that means you are left brained.

The left brain is the more logical side, so these people tend to be more careful.

If your answers were mixed or you ended up with mostly Cs, you likely have a healthy balance of left brain and right brain.
