musical skills test

Jake Mandell's musical skills test :

Test your musical skills in 6 minutes!

While working at the music and neuroimaging lab at Beth Israel/Harvard Medical School in Boston, I developed a quick online way to screen for the tonedeafness. It actually turned out to be a pretty good test to check for overall pitch perception ability. The test is purposefully made very hard, so excellent musicians rarely score above 80% correct. Give it a try!

As of December 12th, 2006, over 120,000 people have had their scores submitted!



So did I. This is an experience I enjoyed : the kind of attention that you have to exert is really different from any other test you find on the net. See also the preliminary results.
