Could you be color blind?

211. and I'm extremely colorblind. I took the test with a mediocre monitor so i sorta cheated. If i had a good monitor I would have scored far worse
 
I am colorblind and I already know it but I got an 86

I think I rushed it though... whatever it started to strain my eyes anyway

Everyone should already have some idea of their eye sight. Pretty sure the doctors give you eye tests all the time when you are a kid. Course thats also the US.. don't know about the healthcare elsewhere.

Not where I live... It was always obvious to me that I'm not colorblind, but I never took a test.

I didn't know that there were different kinds and different levels of color blindness...
I'm surprised that it's common practice to take such a test in the states.
 
I got a perfect score and I DIDN'T cheat... its actually very simple... and you can take the test VERY quick as well.

Just quickly put all the swatches in an estimated order by color. Then starting from the left, just flip each swatch one by one with the swatch to it's right. If you are NOT color-blind, the swatches will create an optical illusion showing a VAST difference between swatches that at first glance look exactly the same. Do this right and you CAN'T fail this test; assuming you aren't color blind.

Of course, since I have been working on website designs for so long, and I know the Hex Triplet Color Code like the back of my hand... I have an inclination from seeing the minor differences in different hues of colors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors

This test does NOT test only color-blindness. It also tests luminosity blindness and chroma blindness. Even if you are color blind, you could theoretically get a perfect score on this test by only evaluating the luminosity values and the chroma.

211 is actually a REALLY BAD score.
 
I got a 10. Brings back memories of Color Theory...which is probably why I have a little harder time differentiating web colors when I learned color theory in pigments.
 
I did the test exactly the way Jaxel did it. If you're worried it takes too long it's a great way to do it quickly. As for people worried about not getting a perfect don't be. Some degradation is common and by in large people here are scoring better than average. If you score high it's not like it's anything you can really help or are responsible for in any event. My brother linked this to me from his forum and people were scoring 30-60 on average with several people in the 200-400's and only 2 perfects out of rougly 20 individuals. Now I have to wonder if fighting fans have trained their eyes in some way they were unaware of or if this is just luck of the draw.
