- This dyslexia test can be an excellent start to discovering whether or not you have dyslexia. It is used for a broad age range, including dyslexic adults. With this test, most adults are correctly identified as either dyslexic or non-dyslexic. While it does not replace an official diagnosis, this dyslexia test can be the first step in finding out something new about yourself. Employers are required to treat dyslexics fairly and make reasonable adjustments in many places over the world. So testing for dyslexia can be worthwhile also as an adult.

✅ Even though English is not my native language, I wrote my entire MA thesis and worked at full professional capacity in the English language. Because of my premium Grammarly account, I felt confident enough to do that without worrying too much about my spelling. I think it is a must-have for dyslexics!

Never thought I could be dyslexic and I did this test for fun... I got 7/9
Yea, I also did this for fun and I got a 6/10. I'm not the sharpest tool in the toolbox, so does this mean I have dyslexia, or does it just mean it's likely that I have it?
@@Alixiie_Animates I just felt dumb, especially with the backwards numbers 😅
@@evakurl i dont think i have dylexia but I do have adhd. i found that a lot of the issues overlapped so this could also be the case for some. the issues that can overlap are anything that have to do with keeping things in track in your head. lefts and rights, maths, number backwards, months.. its hard to focus on adhd and keep track of stuff in your head
Well, just so you might consider it: you could also be struggling with attention there. I have ADHD and was confusing the first time I did a dyslexia test. After starting back with treatment, I was tested again and had no problem at all, in fact, I didn't fail in any category.
@@Alixiie_Animates No. There's no such thing as the condition of dyslexia, like it explains something. Dys means not, and lexia means reading, so it's just a fancy way of saying that someone doesn't know how to read. Everyone transposes digits and letters. . . unless some well-meaning teacher gives them anxiety or some pseudo 'diagnosis' everyone grows out of it, but still makes occasional mistakes. It's like calling one of your kids by the name of a different kid. We all do it. It doesn't mean anything.
Don't have Dyslexia, just wanted to follow along to see what my results were. 2/9
I have ADHD and I struggle a lot with my lefts and rights, the other category I got wrong was the repeating numbers backwards one. I feel like I'm generally really good at math, but I struggle with holding onto too many numbers in my head at a time.
Same
Yeah, I also have ADHD and I really struggled with tests 7 and 8. I've always struggled with trying to remember multiple consecutive things, and I find it very difficult to remember instructions when they're all just said at once. Also, I've always used this stupid song that I learned somewhere between Kindergarten and 2nd grade to remember the months, and, since it goes in order, I had a lot of trouble trying to say them in reverse order lol
i remember lefts and rights were confusing as a kid, now i feel like i know em well but then i stupidly picked his wrong shoulder
best recent example of mixing lefts and rights was when i was in a hospital ive never been before and they told me to go "right" and i was so overly confident in going left and then i realized i made a mistake after like 8 or so minutes and was like "bruh"
thankfully didnt miss my doctors appoitment
same!!! i got a 7 but im prety sure a lot of this is cause of my adhd heh
Im exactly the same, ADHD, not good executive function memory
The moment he said "recite these 6 numbers back to me in order/reverse" I thought to myself: welp this is where I die
Relatable, I almost just gave up because I knew I had no shot.
I didn't even bother remembering the six numbers in the order he gave them. Once he got to the 5th one, I was like, "Nope!"
hahah same i gave up i was like i cant remember the first one xD
I just forgot half the numbers but that's no dyslexia but bad memory
I got 6/9 but like it might just be memory stuff
Omg I literally love this mans chill vibe. I am in no way dyslexic and got 0/9, but I enjoyed this the whole way through. It felt like that comfortable feeling you get when you're at the barber. Lovely, relaxing vibe :)
I appreciate that!
Must be relaxing when you don’t have dyslexia. ahahaha
Same no dyslexia and got 2/9 but it was fun
I was expecting to get under 4/9. Nope. I knew I had roughly 50% chance of dyslexia but I got almost all…. Only one I didn’t struggle with b and d. I struggle with p and b, i and y, and c and o. no one has ever mentioned they also struggle with these so I always felt like I was just stupid but I feel like this confirms my suspicion that I lost the lottery with genetics lmao
Bravo all ok 👌
I feel like non-dyslexic people are gonna have a hard time with a few of these. It'd be nice to see results of a control.
I volunteer! I only got 1 yes and it was the confusing letters one. It doesn’t happen to me in English much but definitely when I read Russian; HOWEVER, I argue it’s because it’s one I don’t read as often in my daily life. I got a maybe with left and right because I definitely can get confused while driving if someone is giving me directions, but had 0 issue with the video test other than just first considering whether the video is mirrored or not, and have no issue giving instructions.
I rewound it once with the reverse number repetition but had 0 issue with the example and first real set, and only rewound the second time because I got distracted + his pausing threw me off (which is relevant to my background).
I have ADHD and ASD and by extension auditory processing issues. I think the biggest giveaway I’m not dyslexic is my best subject was always English and I was always spelling bee champion. I just wanted to do this test for fun as I know both my ADHD and ASD have high comorbidity rates with dyslexia and dyscalculia.
Takeaway: this test can be compromised by auditory processing issues or attention span disorders.
i got 3
I had 3. Some were a bit wishy washy at first because I didn't understand the test the first time and had to redo them. Most of them were doable though when I figured out what was asked.
That's what I am trying to figure out. I got 4/9. What does that mean?
contributing to your control, I got 1/9, for the reverse numbers. Could be because English is not my native language but I guess it would be 'trouble' as well. I always though I had some signs because when typing I interchange letter quite offen, i.e. when typing 'frog' I go for 'grof', for handwriting is happens less often. But anyway, here's my result.
I was diagnosed with ADHD a few years back and I got 5/9. I always find it so interesting how similar ADHD can be with other conditions like autism and dyslexia.
ADHD here too. I’m Aphantasic too and that never helps with stuff like the repeating the numbers backwards, haha.
Many people that have dyslexia are also more likely to have adhd, autism or something else that falls within the neurodivergent spectrum. I always hated the extra lessons I had to take, but now I think it’s a super power. I still make mistakes, writing wise, I read mega slow, but I am a great thinker, which really helps me with my work. 🥰
They are under a transdianostic category! (Neurodevelopmental disorders) so they really have points in common
source: im psychologist
issues in the same part of the brain, just different results
I've got both ADHD and Autism, and I got 7/9 from this video's test!
Yep. You had me at “left hand to right shoulder.”I’m 64 and I’ve been in denial for a while. No worries. Now it’s time to sort it. Thanks for these videos. You may just be an answer to my stumbling along all these years. I look forward to your teachings.
This is just Right/Left Confusion. It's fairly common and commonly to do with a disconnection with word and spatial meaning, suspected to be biological in nature, but doesn't automatically point to dyslexia.
I was about the same age when I found out and I sorted it with surgery.
The only two I _really_ struggle with is reversing number orders and left vs right. 6, 7, and 8 times tables always require significantly more thought than any other ones, and I also struggled a lot with replacing letters, but I blame that on the replaced letters not making new words and also thinking that paste was paced :D
Notably though, I do have ADHD and I have always been an exceptional reader, but I don’t read like anyone else I know except my mom. We both just stare at a sentence until it surrenders its meaning. We don’t read individual words.
Left vs right is more on it being reversed since he’s facing you. Furthermore, both of you are facing the same way in his turning example (also an easy mixup of directions that anyone can do). I 100% agree with the replacing of letters and he wasn’t really enunciating them well.
Tbf those were tricky questions and i kinda doubt their real value, as the numbers rather test your attention span and short term memory. The tables as you said require though and tbh i never bothered memorizing them so i don't really remember them, i just do the math in my head unless it's really big numbers. So i don't think that counts as dyslexia rather just being good or bad at math or memorizing those numbers. The replacing the letter is complete bs because, as a non native english speaker, it seems absurd that in the example he gives 2 words that are pronounced the same and have the same letters, then he goes "paste" to "pante" and he expects you to read "paint".
some of these rely heavily on working memory (reversals and repeatals), so a skilled clinician would need to be able to separate results from something like ADHD or another disorder that heavily impairs working memory.
@@Schoolerino-pj8puI'm actually somebody who has a terrible memory, so this probably makes more sense as to why I struggled on these exact ones 😅
working memory is separate from short and long term memory, working memory is roughly capacity of 30 seconds, and it's what your brain relies on to solve complex tasks. think of it as like your computer RAM capacity, not your hard drive / SD card / SSD. if you don't have enough RAM to load the video file to edit, you can't complete the task. It doesn't matter if you have plenty of storage space to save it for later or load it.@@__toast___
I got 6/9. I’m really happy with my dyslexia now. I got out of a toxic job environment that fired me for being dyslexic (they called me lazy and quote horrible work ethic) and this type of test is just another reason I am no longer ashamed.
I am really glad you feel that way :) And there is really no reason to be ashamed in fact they were legally obligated to accommodate you. Which I guess they failed to do....
Ministers wanted me to go through exorcism said dyslexia can be caused by demon I saw what it done for others 👎 I left and was gaslight for having it. Confusing hard to explain.
And does my dad wanna upper lip
Shut your mouth dad or get an upper lip busted lip shut your F. and mouth
@@user-sr9es2fl4h probably from this era, people still believe in that stuff yknow respect peoples religion man, just because they sound religious doesnt mean they arent from this era.
I was so confident I’d do well. I love reading and can read pretty quickly too. First question I was so confident with my answer and then realized after he told the answer that I was pointing at the wrong shoulder. It only went downhill from there. I think I got like 1 or two parts without struggling.
same here, no trouble reading or writing. can speed read as well
same but i got a diagnosis when i was 12 i just wanted to see what the video was like
Same
ur comment is literally me. i always push aside the probability of me being dyslexic because i always think that "nah i can read, in fact i read pretty quickly and write quick too" but taking this test and getting 7/9.. and learning that difficulties with deciding left/right is a dyslexia problem,, yeah i need to talk to a psychiatrist or something. smth is wrong 💀
BRO SAME
9/9 and i always got above average marks in most classes and never had many doubts of being dyslexic….. i guess you really do learn something new everyday
Same. I'm like what?? Cuz I did so well in school, but I do mix things up alot and I'd say I failed this test. Or should I say passed if dyslexia is what we're aiming for. I need an objective judge tho.
@@TEWMUCH you people don't understand being dyslexic has absolutely nothing related with your "School" its just a medical condition that makes makes simple stuff like spelling or speaking harder it does not limit your ability to gain knowledge the person taking this test or the one running this channel as he said himself is an MA in Education studies
@decayedd1576 ok thanks for explaining. I understand what u mean.
Wow! Just stumbled over your channel and watched several of your dyslexia tests. They reminded me of being an 8 year old and going through 3 days of testing to find out I was severely dyslexic.
I had a check in all the boxes of this test...
I'm now 32 years old and a licensed nurse. A profession I was told I would never succeed in, yet was my dream. I struggle where other nurses don't but excel in areas that those same nurse took took years to hone. I revel in my "disability". I am one of kind.
Thank you for making this content! You are amazing!
Much love from the US ❤
Thanks for sharing. I’m wanting to get into nursing myself. I know I have a learning disability. I don’t have anyone formally diagnosed with dyslexia in my family but based off some things I’ve noticed with myself I feel like it’s more than likely that diagnosis.
@@marvyST My best advice is to work in a hospital as an assistant and study pathophysiology on your own time before going to nursing school. Nursing school is very challenging especially for a dyslexic. There is a lot of reading and writing and this will take up a lot of your time. If your dedicated enough and sacrifice a bit of your personal life I have no doubt that you will get through it, reaching your goal.
Remember that nothing worth having comes easy...this is especially true for dyslexics in modern academia.
I'm not dyslexic, but took this test out of curiosity. Got 3/9, however I'm not sure the words in task 6 were actual words? That got me muddled. Also interestingly enough, I had no problem reciting the months backwards (despite having never done it before), but trying to recite the numbers backwards gave me a headache!
Yes. I was thrown by his version on the words. I play tons of word games every day so I’m pretty good at reforming words from sets of letters.
Pants is not paints.
I also can do the math but not in my head under pressure, I need to see things. I was okay at one time doing the multiplication tables but I’m rusty.
I’ve always thought I was slightly dyslexic because I had trouble learning to read and I had poor spelling and I’d say things backwards without realizing it.
Now however, I’m a great reader and I have become a pretty good speller through practice.
I didn’t score that poorly on this test. I’m not sure what that means.
None of them were actual words, annoyed me quite a bit
@@katmandudawn8417 Did he not say Paste, which then became Pante which sounds like paint?
@@Midni_Dia He did say that but it's not an actual word all of the words he used worked phonetically but they aren't real words. Apart from the example he gave Glide and Slide. Maybe he made a mistake due to his Dyslexia?
@@Midni_Dia Yeah I'm getting frustrated with this one, it must be explained badly, because it sounds like he's removing a sound, not a letter.
Remove the S sount and change to an N sound and Paste sounds like Paint. But to say switching letters implies specifically the word read how it'd look to be... Not just nonsense. @_@
As someone who has always been questioning about being dyslexic, I got a 8/9 and in fact some of these tasks were things I didn’t even know were indicators and it felt surprising since those specific things were things I couldn’t do
Please it is very important to me did you answer correctly number 3 question,? To repeat the 6 digit number , do you have difficulty remembering?
@@walidsarwaryI answered number 3 as no since I don’t know people in my family and I’m very sure my parents aren’t dyslexic
And yes I did have trouble remembering the numbers
Not sure why u wanted to know but here
But there*
@@walidsarwarythe working memory of dyslexic people is very bad . At least once in the day my brain stops functioning for 5 seconds .
Sometimes I hear people voice but I can’t understand them regardless the repeating .
But you can do special analysis 5 time faster than others people
I was playing Zelda totk with my wife 2 months ago. I solve the puzzle in 30 seconds but my wife needs at least 5 minutes. I never tell her the answer because she will get upset.
I was diagnosed with a cognitive memory disorder when I was a child.Dyslexia is a part of it and oh my god is it hard I scored 8/9
My difficulties here were differentiating left and right - it's really something I have to stop and think about and it's always been something I've struggled with - and saying the numbers in reverse order, more because I couldn't memorize them. The rest was okay.
An interesting, simple and easy test. Thanks for sharing this. I'm sure it will be helpful for many people.
the most hard thing in left or right shoulder is that you dont understand from what pov you should think.Its more like unfinished sentance at this point.
Wow, I’d never really looked into dyslexia before, I know that I frequently scramble letters inside words when I write but this test was absurdly accurate to my issues. Like mixing up b and d, and having issues with the order of the months, it’s honestly mind-boggling I haven’t looked this up before…
Happy to help! It’s very common
I got a 0/9, just came here for fun especially cause im studying psychology at school and this is one of the tests in my book
Its pretty amazing
Same
Yeah same 0/9
How-
I got 2/9 and I’m very bad at spelling mostly because I’m very dumb but yeah not dyslexic
i have no idea how you could do the reverse numbers thing correctly
Those words with the letter substitutions were really confusing because the resulting words were all spelled wrong. Did you mean to say, substitute the "sound"? That would make more sense. Otherwise, I did better than I feared because I have always had a hard time with addition, subtraction, and multiplication, despite being above average at logic and more advanced math. I have also struggled with slow reading and mis-spelling my whole life. I tend to write letters in the wrong order when I get tired or stressed. My dad was dyslexic and helped himself by working on the trampoline with a method based on the work of Pepper. When I was little, he did a lot of training with me on directions and reciting things backwards so I'm guessing that if I had mild dyslexia that this may have helped keep it from becoming too much of a hindrance.
Yeah, I was like how does “paste” change into paint? And I was also thinking “I’m pretty sure worsed isn’t a word”
I’m out here wondering where the “i” in “paced” is.
This confused me too. It should be 'worst' not 'worsed', 'paint' not 'pante' and 'crane' not 'crain'. He must have meant the sound, not the spelling...
@@ellemiller3897I thought I was losing my mind. I was so confused why there weren't more comments addressing this
@@gracereynolds7503 fr I am dyslexic but I thought it was so much worse lmaoo
Thank you for making this video.
I wishe you best in your life brother!
I’m dyslexic and your test is spot on.
As someone who is autistic, it is a fun test to do. My results were 3 out of 9 (only checks on "hesitated"), but sometimes I couldn't tell the difference if I hesitated because I am Dutch or didn't get the meaning of the question.
Wow, 3 out of 9 is crazy good and only checks on hesitated?
I got 7 out of 9 where 3 of those were "Yes". I also have autism, the high functioning kind. I agree this test was fun.
Also autistic and i checked 2. Got the left and right wrong, and also listing the numbers in reverse order.
The letters one was confusing. It asks you to intepret the spoken word into text, apply a transformation to a letter of the word, but then disregard the written form and only apply thw new letter in the spoken form
Paste>Pante?
Brain>Crain????
I'm in the EXACT same boat
8/9
5:45 this was perhaps the hardest and most obvious one for me. When it comes to reversing orders, I always repeat the original order in my head and get the numbers from the back individually. It takes an awful while to complete a task in my head like this, and it’s also difficult since by the time I’m done, I might forget the numbers we beginned with in the first place.
Exactly the same here. Everything was easy except reversing numbers.
because it's normal. this man is a quack. memorization training is a thing for people without disabilities. this test is ridiculous and would give me 2 indicators because i struggled with reverse recall and pronunciation, except "worsed" is not a word and "pante" is neither, and they would not be pronounced the way this man did. he's not a native speaker and doesn't understand english pronunciation rules. it would take training or chance for someone to not struggle with those two, thus they should be scrapped from the test.
I did exactly that too but those were the only ones i struggled with
Did you pass the number 3 question repeating the 6 digit numbers
@@YocairoDid you pass the number 3 question repeating the 6 digit numbers
I was diagnosed as a child. Taking your test certainly reconfirms my dyslexia diagnosis!
I have a dyslexia diagnosis and got 10/10 on the test. I'm thankful I got tested as a child as I got the help I needed with extra tutoring through out school.
I got 7/9, the 6,7,8 multiplication has always been a problem, and reciting the numbers in reverse was a disaster. I’m 74 y.o. Had reading problems as a child, testing for dyslexia wasn’t a thing when I was a child. My spelling is so bad “spell checker” often doesn’t even have a suggestion. I’m quite talented in mechanical and architectural drafting, and excel at woodworking and metal fabrication.
I don't have dyslexia and I have been always a fast reader, and also good at math. However, I have trouble with in-memory calculations and short-term memory of numbers. So, I could pass the reverse number test only when I visualized the entire sequence of numbers in my inner vision, and then read them backward. It took a lot of effort to visualize them and keep the vision persistent in my mind. I could never be able to remember the numbers any other way.
I did it the exact same way!
samee
yeah it’s hard for me to remmeber things short term unless i visualize them in my head
I could memorize and visualize the sequence but I couldn't maintain the order as I attempted to reverse it
same 😭😭
Some of these are also indicators of dyscalculia. It's a lesser-known learning disability that has some similarities with dyslexia, but pertains mostly to things like numbers, maths, directional sense, spatial relations, and other logic-based skills, instead.
If you had trouble with the directional and/or maths and numerical questions, but not the ones relating to words or letters, then you should consider looking up info about dyscalculia - it might help you understand your struggles a bit better.
thank you !!
I have a problem with numbers, but spatial relations and directions I totally get. Learning directions in Chinese about killed me.
Thank you!
Dyscalculia and dyslexia tend to be found together.
Intresting Im good at math but sometimes I do flip my numbers around. That's why I always double triple check.
I was diagnosed dyslexic as a young boy but after loads of help and learning different techniques my reading is good and my spelling is better but not brilliant. My punctuation is terrible as you can probably see. But honestly not felling like dyslexia affects me much anymore I thought is pass this test 😂 I didn’t I'm quite clearly still dyslexic and I'm so thankful for it. I absolutely love all my super abilities and a dyslexic person 🎉
I alway knew there was something different/wrong about me growing up as i always tried very hard but couldn’t do some of the work properly (didn’t know the multiplication table was dyslexia!). I felt so relieved when i got diagnosed at 17, it was so liberating to know what it was and knew it wasn’t uncommon and therefore there would be tools and tricks to live with it. Thank you for this video, I’m sure it will help others :)
I scored 7/9
As a kid my teachers thought I might be dyslexic so I had to take a “special reading class” with two other classmates, but we were in fact seeing an educational psychologist. She was awesome and it helped me a ton but I never did end up getting a dyslexia diagnosis. I got a 9/9 in this btw
Same😂😭
I had the exact same thing happen, but there was only 1 other person in my class. I also never got the diagnosis but i did get a coloured screen to read through. and scored 7/9 on the test.
damn yeah people would say i have a learning disability and then just never checked it or tested it and i kept failing tests and things i prolly would have gotten better grades if i had a chance to get help 😂😂😂😂😂 but oh well i hate school anyways outside of the fact
I was in special learning classes too and all this time no one even mentioned the possibility of dyslexia to me. I always thought I was just stupid and it really hurt. It helps me now to know that all this time it was likely dyslexia as I scored an 8/9 on this test.
I always felt a little like I shouldnt call myself dyslexic (I do have an official diagnosis) because I didn't have it as bad as others but I just got 9/9 so I am feeling pretty validated. thank you so much for making this
You can get so used to working around your symptoms it can be hard to spot when it's causing you some problems, it's not like you really have a point of comparison, it's just a matter of if the thing gets done or not. Like taking a list to go shopping, spell checkers as things become more electronic, rereading instructions, etc.
Same experience! I was diagnosed in grade 3 but had a lot of support so if I tell people I get weird looks. But I just got 8/9, so I guess the issues persist.
That's me too! I have an official diagnosis in grade 1, but I do really well in day to day life (or so I thought!) I know numbers are my weak area, but I got 7 wrong, 1 hesitate and 1 correct. This really shocked me.
@@neonice lol good for you for not being dyslexic? What a weird brag on a video like this.
you just explained me ive had a diagnosis for quite some time (mostly dyscalculia) and i always felt that and here i am getting a 8/9
One 'good' thing about my early diagnosed with dislexia is that i tried to improve with time the things i was 'bad' at. I was diagnosed when i was 13 and ever since i know the points i need to improove and always work to get it better. its not a cure but its a way to manage and make it better
It's one of the most remarkable video about dyslexia I have ever seen plus it's guiding us very correctly about the weaknesses of such people. I want u to please help us how to teach dyslexic children to overcome all these weaknesses easily in an effective way. Thanks alot 👍
This test just showed me that dyslexia truly does affect my life. I had trouble or couldn't do all of the tests. I had no idea I struggled this much with this. What an eye opener.
I always think it affects me very little (except not knowing left and right is kind of problematic) and the ways it does affect me are mostly funny (like misreading things to the point where I just assume that's what they're called until I learn otherwise hearing someone say them out loud--my family still calls the hockey player Alexander Ovechkin "Ov-check-in" because I read his name as "Ovchekin" for so long, for example), and then I do things like this and realize that I really am simply just struggling 24/7
yeah the reading the numbers back kinda annoyed me but more so because there was to many and i could'nt remember or just changed them.
These tests are kinda intended to bully people with dyslexia so dont let it get to you too much.
Same. I usually mix up b and d as well as my and w but the m and w are sometimes. b and d are very common. I always had issues telling my right from my left and subtraction is always an issue for me. I thought I would have been slightly dyslexic but then I got 9/9 so..
Edit: grammar
as an non english speaker the replace one and the reversed number one was hell
I almost got a perfect score.😅😅😅...growing up having undiagnosed dyslexia, I struggled a lot specially in school.And now I'm almost certain that my 8 year old kid has it too so I'm determined to give her the intervention that I never got...Thank you so much for this very informative videos. I will share this to everyobe I know maybe it would help them understand.
keep up the good work and God bless!
To get a perfect score I also need to practice my dyslexic skills a little more. 😉
Good parenting right here!! Helping them build those tools early on & give them that understanding of what's happening in their mind prevents those "I guess I'm just stupid" thoughts from happening later in life !
But the thing is this test is not proper and can be wrong
Thank you. Reversing numbers was the only task that was difficult for me. Also, I get confused with turning right or left while driving as I have a horrible sense of direction.
I often struggle with simple tasks and thought I might be dyslexic. It can be embarrassing at times, as I appear slow or developmentally disabled. However, I can solve some complex tasks quickly as well.
the only test i fulled up. thanks
My dad has dyslexia. He struggles with reading and spelling. Growing up, I never thought I was dyslexic because I excelled in reading, writing, and spelling. I'm an avid reader and writer myself, and as a kid I enjoyed growing my vocabulary. I hated math though. I just thought I was bad at the subject. While not officially diagnosed, I do have 7/9 on this. Very interesting to learn!
Officially dyslexia falls under the category of specific learning disability. And within that category you also find dyscalculia. I also have a test video for that on my channel. The too conditions are closely related.
@@ArijeAikedeHaas Thanks! I took that one too and had a lot of indicators as well. Very interesting to know!
My dad also has really bad dyslexia. Because mine was never that bad, I was diagnosed pretty late (around 17 years old). Turns out I was just putting in so much effort I could mask the symptoms well, even from myself.
@@ArijeAikedeHaas So is it Dyslexia or Dyscalculia when I keep getting S and 6 or 3 and E confused.

have you been checked? those with ADHD are significantly more likely to have dyslexia
You're type 2 dyslexic
I think that might be me as well, I clicked the video because I'm an unusually slow reader and ended up getting 7/9 but I am my friend group's spell checker and worked really hard in school to get the best grades in grammar and math because they're the ones you can be "right" in. I'm also in pursuit of an autism diagnosis.
Adhd here as well so ya this test is for totally normal pple
I was diagnosed after failing first grade. My parents sent me to the Reading Research Institute for two summers at Berea College in Kentucky. '67 and '68. I don't know if the program is still there or available but it was definitely a life changer for me. I would have had a very difficult life without Dr. Shed's program.
I've got the ADHD (recent diagnosis), and my dad used to say he was a little bit dyslexic, but I never knew how much he really meant that ( he was a joker, and he's no longer around so I can't ask him). Took this on a whim and got 7/9, despite not thinking I could possibly be dyslexic. I don't know to what age I confused b and d, but it's something I actually remember struggling with in elementary school (I don't remember *that* much from my childhood, so it must've been significant), and I have issues at work sometimes with credit card/phone/address numbers, especially if I'm tired.
I never assumed I could have dyslexia but this test made me rethink that. Some of these tasks were really tough, like the differentiating left from right one (i've always struggled with remember what's left and what's right, though I've gotten better over time at it).
The numbers one was ridiculous because of how fast he did it ESPECIALLY the reverse-order one.
Lol yes have to write tht shit down
@@RassionellMaddman ye that's where I paused n looked at the comments
@@RassionellMaddman1❤11¹¹¹¹1😂❤
Yeah, I think the right and left one was also hard because it was reversed on the camera. It messed me up too.
To be honest, I didn't write down my scores but the test was quite fun. Really caught me off guard with the right and left distinctions. I never knew that it could be a sign of dyslexia. I had a hard time with that as a child and even a young teen, now not so much. And over all I did pretty good with number memorizations and pretty much all of the tests expected for the math ones. I always sucked at math.
Having known 2 elite gymnasts who had dyslexia, I suggest that more large-sample testing be done of this. mirror imaging differs from imitation.
@george mira not everyone suffers in the same way. Some dont struggle with direction
Same with direction too!
I am, but I was not diagnosed until college. School was very frustrating for me, but I learned some adaptive skills, that have helped me to become very analytical, had a successful career as a Systems Analyst. People who are dyslexic, can develop very strong oblique problem solving skills. The difficulty comes in finding the right educational and job opportunities.
My husband and I were assembling a piece of furniture which required reading some instructions. He was stumbling on some of the words and I impatiently grabbed for the booklet. He said to me”hold on, I have to make the letters stop moving before I can read them.” He had made it through school and a very technical apprenticeship program thinking he was stupid. Broke my heart to realize how hard he had worked to succeed. He knew nothing about dyslexia at the time.
I’m not dyslexic but the test with switching letters in words confused me so much! I’ve never heard of the words worsed or crain and I couldn’t figure out what spelling of paste was used. This section freaked me out!
I don't think I'm dyslexic, but English is my third language and I often check spelling online. It couldn't possibly work for me.
I'm not sure it could be done in my native language as a direct replacement as well, because our spelling is simpler than one in English.
Same, are they even words because like I don't feel like that would be a dyslexic thing when your brain is filling in the missing letter for a word that doesn't even exist! What the fuck
This one threw me as well, particularly given that the example worked in terms of both spelling and pronunciation, but the real ones only worked in terms of pronunciation.
THANK GOD! I thought I was the only one that noticed. This bothered me so much.
This bugged the hell out of me because "worsed" and "pante" are not words in English and my brain absolutely rioted because the instruction "tell me what new word is created" combined with an example where the starting and ending words were real English words primed me to expect a real word as the result of the task.
@4:46 man got me questioning life lmao "worsed" is not a word. The second example is also rly weird, I thought he meant "paced" till I turned on captions and it was "paste" which turned into "pante" but he said it like "paint." So I think this part is kinda messed up but maybe I'm wrong
Yeah those two really screwed me up too. The resulting words are only real by pronunciation but the spelling is all messed up.
@@chezarctica7386 that's so unfair. He should've said that
I, as a non-native english speaker, was also very confused with this part.
@@TheWestDESIGN nothing to do with being native. It was dumb of him
@TheWestDESIGN I, as a native English speaker, was also very confused with this part.
So I was diagnosed with Dyslexia when I was like 8-9. I was lucky enough to be able to go to a school that specialized in helping kids with dyslexia learn how to work with it and succeed academically. As I was taking this, there were a few questions that I was just not able to do, but some of them I realized that the only way I was able to answer was through some round about trick or method that I must have been taught back then
my results were very similar to yours, the months of the year I did quickly, however, this is only because I have been spending all week engaged with planning my year. Otherwise, I frequently skip over jun or july, or sometimes august-november get jumbled. I am enjoying your videos, thank you.
Although I was diagnosed with dyslexia at school, I also have synesthesia so the ones involving memory were extremely easy for me. I see numbers very vividly in distinct colours (the colour for each number is always the same) so to repeat back the sequence of numbers I just visualised the pattern of colours. I visualise the year/months as a physical wheel in the space in front of me, so to recite them backwards all I had to do was “move the other way around the wheel”, if that makes sense. Left and right have “feelings” which I can imagine/visualise on other objects too. I learnt to remember the times tables as a pattern of colours and characteristics, so each times table tells a story/ has a specific “feel” to it as I go through it in order.
Although I did see somebody else’s comment saying they got a low score despite having dyslexia because these are the things they’ve had to learn strategies to cope with as they struggled with them so much, so I’m now wondering if my synesthesia is actually a coping mechanism for my dyslexia? Idk, interesting
There's a great poem about synesthesia. Do you know "The Mad Gardener's Song" by Lewis Carroll?

The positivity you bring to our channel is a ray of sunshine on even the cloudiest days. Your support means the world to us!
I thought I had it, because I read to fast and I read over text. But from this test I could do all without problems.
Gonna search my issues somewhere else. Thanks for the video.
5:45
I immediately went 'oh heck no, I'll just take my diagnosis, thank you for your time' 🤣
I was diagnosed with dyslexia when I was 7 and to no surprise I got 7/9 on this test. The part where he changed the letter of the word was impossible for me. However, I've learnt to live with my dyslexia and I know where it affects me and worked out coping mechanisms to deal with it in those situations. I've been teaching English for the last 10 years and I'm just about to take over running the English department in my school. So just because someone has dyslexia doesn't mean they still can't achieve academic goals. Oh and spell checker is possibly the greatest invention for people with dyslexia. 😂
That replacing one was surprisingly hard.
Like I could see the word but I wasn't sure how to pronounce it 😅
@@TheArtofThings seriously, for the first word i never even considered associating "worsed" with worst, i just pronounced "pante" as pant. i literally got drain for the last one, not sure how i even got that.. i was so confident when i said drain too
@@kittique_ I also produced pante as pant, I thought to myself for all of those they weren't real words and it made it difficult.
Could you please share your techniques with me🙏🏻
I have High Functioning Autism and it would take me so, so much longer to read then the others, over 30 minutes for 6 pages (On a good day with trying to read as fast as I could - Pretty much an hour on average) from a fairly small book with average sized printing so to work around it I read one page skipped a few, read another page skipped a few and so on with also trying to pay super close attention to what others were saying about the book and had as many tests as possible done orally, and shocker, the teacher would be surprised whenever I messed up on some obvious stuff that happened in the book. This is what usually got me through those 200+ page books that had to be completed in like a couple of days or so. Especially in high school, it was so bad that I had times where I would just cry myself to sleep or just burst out in tears on the spot. Had I been diagnosed with this at an early age, it would have probably made things a lot easier as I could have gotten the help that I needed. If I even had to do anything when I was already burned out, then forget about me trying to remember anything that I read, it was a living hell, especially with all of the other homework I was also given. I felt like a "stereotypical" South Korean/Asian child/teen/student in regards to the levels of difficulties that I had to deal with in my school years and there were many times where I wanted to kill myself)...
Anyways, if this helps any, here's my test results:
1) My left to right I mess up from time to time, but usually get it, um, right, lolz (Have always messed up when the person was facing me, but I usually got it) :)
2) I don’t know since my Mom remarried when I was really young, so my biological Dad or someone in his family/etc may have had it.
3) I also had no problems with.
4) For lowercased printing style b & d I have confused them for quite a long time, well beyond the age of 8.
5) For a long time yes, they were a nightmare but they are not so bad anymore, but I do still hesitate, how ever I can also do stuff like 17 X 19/etc in my head, but again the hesitation is there.
6) So long as I am just replacing the first letter there are no issues (Same if it is with the last letter), but I do trip up otherwise.
7) The first one I got quite easily, but the second one I had to think about for a couple seconds.
8) Took me around 15 seconds but I got it.
9) Got it.
@@kittique_ I did the same as you lol 😆 for both of those questions
I recently started to have troubles with typing things properly or remembering proper words for things. Good to know it's not dyslexia, thanks.
Word of warning for y’all, the 94% accuracy mentioned at the start of the video is something that’s really important to remember! I got 2/9, but I am dyslexic, in fact when I got my diagnosis from an educational psychologist when I was 17 he told me I was statistically the “most” dyslexic person he’s ever likely to diagnose, these type of indicative tests always came back negative for me growing up, but here I am, the needle in the dyslexia pile, never showing up, but the differential between my comprehension and expression abilities are insane, I like to think of myself like the rain man who instead of solving equations just draws silly pictures and runs off 😂
I was diagnosed with "severe" dyslexia as a teen. I clicked on this video with, well, a lot of doubt. I've always been good at math, so I was able to do the subtraction and the repeating of the numbers (in the same order) without issue. The rest I either couldn't do, or had trouble with. 7/9 and an official diagnosis. (PS: I'm 54 and I still confuse lowercase b and d, but I always write in all caps, so it doesn't happen too often anymore.)
Did you pass the number 3 question repeating the 6 digit numbers
I'm great at math but subtraction has always been one of the hardest things for me to do. To the point where its much quicker (instantaneous to near instantaneous) to configure it as an algebraic equation. Thankfully, I'm also good at rote memorization to help lessen the burden.
Print in caps. I do this to. helped loads for people being able to read what I was trying to say as a young lad . Dyslexic top tips 😂
1:32 of course I hesitated for a second because it's a reflection so you have to reverse it! 🤔
What age would be the youngest age that this test would be appropriate for?
I was pretty badly dyslexic as a child. If anyone who is also dyslexic reads this just know it got better over time and I was able to do most of these things now. Nearly 30 btw. It's not easy and the most dificult methods were the most effective. Repetition day in and day out is very effective and very hard to do. Just know you can learn and the harder you try and the longer you do it, you will improve, at your own rate.
This is something that crosses my mind every now and then. I’ve always been great at math but really struggled with reciting the numbers and reciting them backwards. I could recite the whole times tables, but it took a bit of work, like dusting off my brain gears. My mom has Discalculia. I was always in high level math classes but always worked very slowly. I do have ADHD, so that may have something to do with it though.
Fr same
Do math at the olympiad level, but can't complete in time :(

Holy crap man. I was HORRIBLE with math in school. I just couldn't remember times tables and I think I started in grd.3 and by grd5 I was still having trouble. I had to take extra classes before class to help. And then I had a tutor when I was 12 for grd.9 cause I just couldn't get fractions.
I can memorize numbers going foreword but holy ducking doing them backwards my mind just shut off lmaooo
I had 3
5:12 u said paste but replace the s with a n. It would be pante not paint.
even with brain would be crain. it might sound like it, but doesnt spell crane which could make others confused and think they got it wrong.
I have been diagnosed with dyslexia for a couple years now and taking this test I understand why I have it now.
When he told me to point at this right shoulder with my left hand, i was pointing with my right to his right & i struggled with reversed the number, reversing the months. I also had difficulty with directions in general ever since i was a kid
I got 7/9. But I have no idea how well I’d do without ADD or if it is similar to dyslexia at all. All I knew before this video was that dyslexia runs in my family on my dad’s side, and that it was most likely a 60% chance I had it too. This really helped me figure some things out about myself. Thanks for creating this video.
i had 7/9 and i have a ADD not treated yet, i wonder if i got this result because of dyslexia or ADD

✨️Paint✨️
Funny how it doesn’t even have a I in paste.
Yeah I’m confused by this too, how tf is paste into paint there’s 3 new letters 😂
I have always been diagnosed as a slow learner, but once I got diagnosed for dyslexia because there was inconsistencies with my test, but generally when I do the test it shows that I am slow learner not dyslexic, but when I did this test I had all of the indicators showing that I was dyslexic. I got nine out of nine when I write my letters. I usually use voice software which helps. I'm definitely worse with numbers.
super cool! I'm dyslexic and got 8/9. its important to note that dyslexia is diagnosed by exclusion of other factors, like other neurological disorders, low intelligence, etc. if you have adhd you might have difficulties with these as well, as dyslexia and adhd are associated with working memory limitations (according to some accounts)
I've never gotten an official diagnosis due to cost barriers, but I've always been pretty confident that I'm dyslexic. I got 8/9, so I feel validated. The numbers were pretty much impossible for me, so now I feel like I need to take the dyscalculia test too.
the numbers seemed impossible to me too, and I'm an engineer... I've always had trouble with arithmetics, thank the lord for calculators
this "test" is pretty ridiculous, don't be too alarmed))
same here, makes so much sense now why school work was so difficult for me growing up
@@marios1861 and I always heard teachers say "you won't be able to use a calculator in the real world" and incomes the engineer
@@zack-lk8if Yea, there will never be a case where you will not have a calculator at hand! And honestly, we don't even deal with numbers that much. I use numbers when splitting the bill more than at work, and I work in research...
Yeah I know I’m not dyslexic, but the part with the numbers completely stumped me 😂 I’ve never been never good at remembering numbers. They leave my brain immediately
Especially with that reverse number, it's impossible, lol...
I got 8/9 and the one about if your parent has dyslexia I do not know about. I was surprised but also I started to remember all of the times my friends from school/ my cousins have said that I have dyslexia because I would read slowly, have a hard time spelling/remembering words, etc I never thought of it because I have ADHD and very bad eyesight/astigmatism which I thought It was normal to have those symptoms if you have that. Now I wonder if I have dyslexia too.
9/9
I won!
But most of my answers were hesitant, but that's because I've been diagnosed with Dyslexia since my first grade.
So I have learned some tricks to remember some of the things,
but I still hesitate, before I remember the tricks and can easily answer.
(for example, right and left and remember the months further back)
I actually have a diagnosis but because I learned to read and write okay I kind of doubted my diagnosis but this video made me realise I am truly dyslexic. My friends always judged me because they believed I faked my dyslexia to get extra help during tests so it's nice to know it wasn't all fake.
They don't seem like friends to me
What do I say to all my students: “fair does not mean equal”.
im 1:20 in and im already forcing myself not to hit the skip 5 second button. Not because bad content, i just have adhd, and want to skip things
2/9 Not so bad. I did this test few years ago and back then I knew English not so well, that was a reason of troubles I had during the test. Now when it’s not a problem results are actually quite nice.
I have SLD, or Specific Learning disability/disorder which is a collection of neurological symptoms which have an effect on reading, written expression, and/or math. And I remember being average on math but strugling on math exams. and reading comprehention was something that took bit
I got a 5. The trouble with left and right, as well as having difficulty with 678 x table blew my mind because they were so spot on with issues I've had ever since I was a child.
best way of memorizing time tables when I was struggling with it when I was around 6-7 is always a rhyme or a catchy song. I can legit rap the seven times tables because of a rhyme the teachers introduced to us. It’s also easier if u minus/add ____. So like for example if someone asked u what is 6 x 9 but u didn’t know an easy way is that if u know what 6 x 10 is then just minus 6. When it comes to math just go with the method that makes it the most easiest for u after all it doesn’t matter how u solve an equation as long as u got the right answer.
I literally just can't do 678 times tables. Those are always such a jumble that I always have to anchor a problem around a number I do remember like 36, 49, and 64... and then just subtract or add a number over and over to get the right answer.
I had A LOT of trouble with almost every one of the tests. 😂 I just could not say the numbers backwards, impossible for me. Also replacing the letters from the words was difficult. Now I get why I couldn't do the spelling letter by letter exercises when I was in primary school.
Thank you so much for sharing
Thanks for watching!
5/9. Had you asked me this when I was under the age of 15, it'd have been 6/9, but through practice, I can do substraction with relative ease. If I see numbers all at once, I can remember then much better. If I write them once, I'll remember them for a week. But if I see numbers coming one by one, I forget the first one at around number 4.
ive been researching neurodivergences for myself for a few years now because of my own struggles. i got 8/9. my dad was severely dislexic and i know for fact that a lot of my family is undiagnosed neurodivergent (mostly ADHD, autistic ad dyslexic) its so sad how most of this stuff goes completeley under the radar for AFAB people.

@Ghostaroni just last question please did you get the number 3 question from this video or you couldn't repeat the numbers please watch this video and tell me if you struggle ???
I have been diagnosed with dyslexia and got a 9/9 on this...wow. Don't really know what I was expecting, but it is crazy to think that most people can do things like recite things backwards, visualize how words are spelled, and know their left and right.
I had to get tested again to have accommodations when I went to college. I went through many years of tutoring to get to the point I am at today as someone who likes to both read and write. I started to wonder if I even had it anymore, and got so scared that I would have to continue my education without the accommodations I needed. I went through almost an entire day with a doctor asking questions like these and more. No surprise, I didn't "lose" my dyslexia, I am just usually better at functioning with it.
Anyway I love my brain, and although it may not be the best at some things, it is super creative and I can think of "outside the box" solutions to problems. Keeps life interesting!
3; I triple took out of doubt on multiplication tables, got distracted during months, and didn't get subtraction in time
I have adhd and I was thinking this would be incredibly difficult since there are often reports of overlapping symptoms. It seemed like a fun idea so I gave it a go.
The only thing I hesitated/got wrong was the backwards recital. I never forgot the numbers, it’s just 1am and I’m running on 3 hours of sleep. I don’t know why I’m telling the internet this. But I guess I’m surprised at how simple this test is, yet it is highly effective in clinical studies and real world applications? This is extremely intriguing to me right now. Great video!
Well it is simple for you because you (or me) don't have dyslexia. If you have dyslexia your brain will have problems establishing the necessary connections to solve the questions.
I was diagnosed at age 8 with a "learning disability in the area of reading and language" it took me another 15 years to realize this likely meant I have dyslexia. I scored almost exactly the same as you.
Diagnosed dyslexic here! (I got diagnosed roughly 10yrs ago) 8/9 - I think I’m the first one in my family line to have been assessed for dyslexia! It’s highly likely someone before me has had dyslexia just undiagnosed…. I also struggle to spell, read. I have issues with memory loss & ‘going blank’
I was diagnosed with dyslexia in elementary school and probably i was the first diagnosed child in that school. At the time (some 20 years ago in Poland) it was a new idea and many teachers refused to belive in it. For example director(!) of my school told in front of my classmates (all of them) that I was not dislectic just lazy, becouse that disability does not exist. After that I was ashamed to take my extra time at the exam...
How many indicators of dyslexia did you collect? As a reminder, this test would classify you as dyslexic if you got four or more indicators.
I got 9/9 😅
@@deboramakita6589 So I guess we’re both quite dyslexic 😃

I was totally convinced I would be fine doing these but you sound just like me. The 678 X tables was when I got a jaw drop. Some of them were fine, but some totally not. I'm really confused now. I read loads as a child, have near perfect spelling and I write for fun.

@@nonabonn There are different degrees of dyslexia, and it manifests differently for different people.
I taught a student that had an unusual variation. He wrote (printed) slowly and misspelled many words. By observing him closely I realized that he didn't WRITE letters, he DREW them! He didn't always start a letter in the same place, maybe starting a lower-case b top down, or bottom up, or with the loop first. He was like a computer having no text mode and being stuck in graphics mode. Every letter was a picture.
my troubles during each task if i had any
1: i hesitated cause i wasnt sure whos right you meant. mine or yours so i did confuse them
i put hesitated on this
2 nah no trouble
3 i got some of the numbers mixed on the second list. but none wrong. i have a bad memory in general so i wrote no trouble as its usual for me to not remember things.
4 yes. i do get them confused as they look similar
5 no ive never been able to remeber my 8 times tables. its just somthing i lack even if when i learned it many times
6 failed every single one. so def yes on this.
7 i hesitated and got some numbers mixed so hesitated
8 i mixed a few up and forgot may completley so i would say yes
9 hesitated again and gave a few wrong answers before getting to the right one
all in all 6/9
this was fun and educational. thanks for the experience
I did not think I would be dyslexic but here I am with a 8/9 on the test. My father is dyslexic. I also struggled with B & D’s till I was 11. The numbers 2 and 5 always stunted me too
I always thought I was stupid or something was wrong with me because I was always slower than everyone. When I was in primary school, I had to go to a special class for those that are slower in education, but honestly that classroom was so much better just because they had air-con and the tables are all new🤭, so I felt special rather than different. Even now at work I struggle with daily task but I can’t make excuses so I have to alway check everything up to 10times more to make sure it’s correct. I was never diagnosed with dyslexia and didn’t know about it till now, I’m 24yrs old now.
Barber here- sometimes when I'm cutting someones hair (we're facing the mirror) and I ask them which side they part their hair on, and they'll say 'my right, so you're left.'

Too many people do it for it to be a sign they might have dyslexia
Hebrew righting system is an Abjad , like Arabic.
That's why it's difficult, one letter may be pronounced 2 different ways and a sound be be spelled 2 or 3 different ways.
I've never had the chance to get a diagnosis but I was pretty sure I was dyslexic just because I can never know which is left or right. Thank you so much for the test, it validated other difficulties that I had but didn't know were due to dyslexia.

I always just imagine I put my hand over my heart with my right hand as if I was doing the pledge 😆
Just remember this isn't a video to help self diagnosis :)
Eventually after all the gaming I figured out via mouse buttons. Then via driving jokes I got the language part too(I’m multilingual) so now I know left and right in four languages AND I can use it.
The joke goes like this, either you’re driving on the right side of the road or the wrong one.
I'm technically dyslexic but vanquished any potential pathologies via early intervention. I was super lucky to have a stay at home mom and she helped me develop a love for reading even while still learning to speak. Grandparents gave me a PC at age 2 with a ton of games I had to learn to install and play myself. Played road trip games reading all signs passing by as quickly as possible.
I'm a speed reader and type accurately at 100+ wpm (higher if really stretching) but scored quite highly on this test (7).
Early intervention, folks, even earlier than you would guess. The sheer mass of practice early on allow for effective masking and indeed "pathologies" of this disorder.
Thank you, have a lovely day.
I'm not dyslexic but I had some trouble with the reverse numbers, which is interesting because I'm fairly good at remembering numbers and doing math in my head. I think a lot of the difficulty was due to the way the numbers were narrated. They were digit by digit and the narration itself wasn't very uniform. Interesting test.
I wonder how dyslexics deal with clockwise and counterclockwise movement. It's been more than a decade but I distinctly remember that in high-school physics about torque, a lot of kids had problems understanding the direction of the force, even those who certainly didn't have any obvious learning disabilities.
6/9 but was diagnosed with dislexca at age 8 so I've been aware of it most of life. What i really struggle with is math above everything else, then spelling, grammar, and reading is last. This does not mean im good a reading, its just that i can and have read a whole book and retained the information, but it was very very slow for me to do so.
I am already diagnosed with Dyslexia, but i still wanted to try this test. When we got to the numbers, i kept forgetting every number after getting them told to me, in other words i couldn't keep up with all the number until i just gave up completely and forgot all the numbers. 2:55 and 5:51
