About the audio reaction test
This test measures how quickly you respond to a sound. The screen stays grey, and after a wait of random length a beep plays. Click as soon as you hear it. Clicking before the beep counts as too soon and you start the round again.
Your result is the average of five rounds, in milliseconds. Hearing is often a little faster than seeing, but audio takes extra time to travel through your computer, and wireless headphones add noticeably more.
How to improve
- Use wired headphones or speakers. Bluetooth audio can add enough delay to hide real improvement.
- Turn the volume up to a comfortable level so the beep is unmistakable.
- Close your eyes or look away from the screen so you are not tempted to watch for a change.
- The first click starts the audio, so do one practice run before you try for a best score.
