The scoring chart maps statements #1–20 to four learning styles—Visual, Aural, Read/Write, and Kinesthetic—each with up to 5 points. The quiz identifies the highest-scoring style as primary and the second-highest as secondary, including multimodal ties.

The max number of points you can earn for a category is 5. | Visual (V) | Aural (A) | Read/Write ( R) | Kinesthetic ( K) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | 2 | 4 | 3 | | 7 | 6 | 5 | 9 | | 8 | 11 | 12 | 13 | | 10 | 19 | 15 | 14 | | 16 | 20 | 18 | 17 | | Points: | Points: | Points: | Points: | The category you received the highest number of points in (up to 5) is your primary learning style, and the category you received the second-highest number of points in is your secondary learning style. If you have two or more learning styles tied for the highest number of points, then congratulations—you are officially multimodal! This means that you have a roughly equal preference for at least two different learning styles.
