In my opinion, this test was not very accurate because of a couple
different reasons. One reason is that the test where you have to hit
the E or the I, can confuse you because you are doing your choice so
fast that once they switch, you are used to the other order and it can
confuse you which will really effect your answers. Also, the questions
could have related a lot more to the topic, because normally your
religion and your political views have a small portion of your
opinion. That is what i feel about this test.

I did not enjoy taking this test at all. I feel that the results were
inaccurate because the fact that the person taking the test has to go
as fast as they possibly can to hit two buttons on a keyboard that
determines their answer is not a good way to gain results considering
the wrong button could easily be pressed multiple times therefore
giving data that isn't what the test taker actually wants to give. For
example the test made me retake parts of it multiple times because
according to the site i didn't go fast enough or pressed the wrong
button for certain pictures. When this happened to me and i saw the
same picture come up again i remembered and hit the other button but
it still told me i was incorrect...for the same picture. This
definitely says something about this form of testing. Lastly how fast
i can click a key on a keyboard says absolutely nothing about my
preference in skin color.
