Are you a good Multitasker?

[btriangle]

A lot of studies show that many people do not Multitask well. It has been proven that the brain can only focus on one strand of information at a time, and i think it might be right. I never multitask, look at the results. 100%, just crazy, yet i always get distracted, so in a way this doesn't make any sense.

Anyway, try it yourself.

Im sorry but your sentence sounds half ass alone lol. How often do you multitask dude?

[btriangle]

you guys should try this one, its much more difficult, and proves whether you can really multitask.

I did terrible on this part, even though i did great on the last, which makes sense, I'm not meant to multitask. My mind can only focus on one thing at a time, and when it does, as you see, its very successful.

I too got 100%.

But I already knew I was a good multitasker as I am a woman.

Do you play a lot of video games? I used to, and i think thats another reason why i got 100%. Also i suggest you take the other one that i linked above, that tells if you really are good at multitasking.

[Jonners]

That was really easy.

I'm multitasking right now - drinking, listening to music and typing at once. Yamcakes.

Not as much as I used to. It's just a known fact that women make better multitasker ;D

I did the second one though I don't get the results much 3:

[XenonMonkey]

I mis-clicked one. But yeah, that was extremely easy.

[HeavyTank]

Meh, it was pretty easy..you don't have to be a multitasker to see if some red triangles changed their place...
As far as normal multitasking goes, I'm pretty good...

[Hoeloe]

Again really easy. 100% on both.

Try this for a true multitasking challenge (as far as I know, only about 10 people have actually completed it, including me)

92% on both

but i was listening to music and chatting too so i was multitasking while taking the quiz

[Narusegawa]

Um I got 100% on both and it was ridiculously easy. I doubt it is a accurate test of measuring multitasking capabilities.

[DrRick]

I can multitask most of the time. But eventually, I lose my train of thought and have to decide what to focus on first.

I know... Same here. It seems that this was either a con... And just really easy... Or we are all really good multi-taskers. I'd like it to be the latter... Just to make me feel good... But I secretly know that this was just an easy test. Haha.
