I scored 10/10 in 49 secs. It was a weird test tho… I would go see a doc and be for sure

I’m not color blind… but I think its just a guy thing. I don’t think girls can be color blind. THink I learned that in school.

My brother is color blind. He especially has trouble with red and greens.

Oh, and HAPPY V-DAY!

@noName: Yeah, I was just being over dramatic in the post. I know it doesn’t matter much to be colorblind. Fortunately for me, I still have most memories (the good ones anyways!). But in a way its good that you keep forgetting things as you get new things to remember. Memory would get overloaded otherwise

@Venu: You scored 6. I scored 2! And the second one was a guess. So I am totally colorblind. But ya, its good to know that I have company.

@Judge: I don;t think it is not totally bogus. Its possible that it tests only a particular type of colorblindness as there are many.

@Lucio: Professional opinion? for colorblindness? I don’t think so. I am just happy to complain about one more thing

@The Executive Apprentice: I couldn’t see any numbers in most of the patterns and some vague groupings on some which helped me guess one answer. Only the first answer was clearly visible to me. I continued cos I had made guesses for few other questions too and wanted to see how many I got.

@greensatya: Heh! My company is one of the rare companies that does not ask the new hires to go through any psychometric or medical tests. Lucky, huh?

@Abhinav: No, I was never asked to take any colorblindness test ever! I did try changing the monitor settings but it didn’t help

I took the test and got 100% which raises my suspicion about the test, because i do have some problem in recognizing certain colour. and yea didnt u took a medical examination for doing engineering?? they do check about colourblindness then.

May be readjust the lighting and give the test again .. that wud help

I took the test and got all correct. Color blindness is a rare phenomenon and it does not mean you can’t discern colors. But didn’t they give you this test before you took your job ? This is a mandatory test for almost all companies.

What’s interesting to me is how non-compelling the test is if you don’t know what you’re seeing. I am not color blind, so maybe you can shed some light on this for me. When you look at the images, do you see other numbers? If so, I can see why you would have continued the test, but if not, it seems that one would choose to give up since they can’t see any of the potential answers on a given image.

Interesting test though.

[…] Raj found out that he was color blind and requested his readers to take the color blindness test on […]

I got a 10/10. But seriously you should get a professional opinion.

I think that test is bogus. Dont let some stupid meme on Facebook affect your life. If you think you have a problem, go to a doctor and have it checked professionally.

I tested low on this test as well and I have literally no problems with color blindness.

I had seen this app before on facebook and when i scrolled through the questions, I thought it was some kind of fun since i was not able to make out any of the numbers…

today i took the test and managed only 6 out of 10 and the avg score is 97 % !!!
even in the result page, i was scanning through the image to find the right answer and I couldn’t..

you just found one more almost colorblind buddy … by the way “thanks”
anyway i am going to make some of my colleagues take this test and hopefully i will find some company there…
