Ever wondered how perfect your pitch was?  Here's your chance to find out:  http://www.musicianbrain.com/pitchtest/

If you go to the link above, wear headphones.  Here are my results from when I took the test a while ago:

"Thank you for taking our Pitch Discrimination Test at http://musicianbrain.com/pitchtest.
At 500 Hz you can reliably hear pitch differences of 2.25 Hz, which means you did better than approximately 79.3% of people who took our test!"

Let's find out how good we all are at telling the difference between pitches!

When you get your results, post them here.

"At 500 Hz you can reliably hear pitch differences of 1.078125 Hz, which means you did better than approximately 96.2% of people who took our test!
How will your friends do? Share this test online, or forward this email to find out!"

I've taken this test before a few times, though, seeing it linked around places. My first time was around 85% I think.

But was I as annoyed near the end by the same percentage, or would that likely be higher? LOL
