I tried this. Apparently I'm more musical than the average person! It's good fun to try. |

I tried it. Interesting results, but I couldn't see any overall rating that compared my results to an average or anything like that, so I wasn't sure what my results really meant.
I scored Enthusiasm for music - 73% Musical perception - 99% Emotional connection - 64% Social creativity - 58% Musical curiosity - 99% But I have no idea where this puts me compared to an "average person!" |

enthusiasm - 95%
perception - 90% emo - 100% (lol) creativity - 33% curiousity 89% was a cool test I don't know how accurate it is... I like how i got 100% for the emotional section though I don't play any instruments or do anything with music creatively so no surpise I was pretty low on that.Also I done pretty well in all the tests apart from the memory one which I got exactly 50% on. |

By average, I was guessing that's it's anything over 50%, but that's possibly completely wrong. It was fun to do though!

Enthusiasm for Music - 96%
Musical Perception - 99% Emotional Connection - 64% Social Creativity - 63% Musical Curiosity - 9% (lol) The curiosity score was probably to do with the fact I've never been to a live gig and never want to. Wouldn't say I'm not open to new music though - I'm always looking for new music on the internet almost everyday, and I'm not too fussed about genre, although clearly not as diverse as some people. I wish I was creative with music, but sadly for me I wasn't blessed with a creative mind . I can't properly play any instruments (I used to play the drums for a short time) but I do know a decent-ish amount of music theory, and I can pick up melodies, chords and beats etc.I don't get out much or have any friends either so I don't get much opportunity to discuss music apart from on forums like this, and thus I can't take part in group activities with music. |

Enthusiasm for Music- 86%
Musical Perception- 32% Emotional Connection- 34% Social Creativity- 47% Musical Curiosity- 9% I scored quite high on tapping out a beat, and recognising changes in pitch. I pretty much failed on the first two, though. |

OK, thank you Internet goblins and gremlins! Got in eventually...
Musical enthusiasm 99% Musical perception 99% Emotional connection 100% Socail creativty 72% Musical curiousity 14% (D'oh!) I think I arsed up the "tap to the beat" though --- I misinterpreted that to be tap to the rhythm, so only tapped when the drumbeat was on. This seems to have been wrong. Oh well, a relatively good score, nonetheless... |

I already play Acoustic & Electric Guitar, do DJ Mixing and have released 3x Demo's. 25 minutes doesn't need to tell me how musically creative I am
