About This Quiz

You might take all the little things you know how to do for granted. When is the last time you stopped to think about how many things you've learned how to do during your lifetime? If you were to start counting now, you would still be counting them in your elderly years. With or without realizing it, we have picked up too many life skills to count. 

As we get to know you during this quiz, we will ask you about your skills. From the things you do at work to the way you throw together an outfit on a day off, you are full of life skills that other people might not possess in the same quantity as you. Once we get to know the things you do and do not know how to do, we will be able to relate your unique skill set to your intelligence type. 

Whether you are people smart or you are book smart, your skills are sure to show off your traits. Do not feel left out if you do not have a certain life skill. If you had all of them, you would be older than we can count. Just be honest, and then we'll tell you what kind of smart we think you are!
