Could you be color blind?

Everyone should already have some idea of their eye sight. Pretty sure the doctors give you eye tests all the time when you are a kid. Course thats also the US.. don't know about the healthcare elsewhere.
Not where I live... It was always obvious to me that I'm not colorblind, but I never took a test.

I didn't know that there were different kinds and different levels of color blindness...
I'm surprised that it's common practice to take such a test in the states.
 
I got a perfect score and I DIDN'T cheat... its actually very simple... and you can take the test VERY quick as well.

Just quickly put all the swatches in an estimated order by color. Then starting from the left, just flip each swatch one by one with the swatch to it's right. If you are NOT color-blind, the swatches will create an optical illusion showing a VAST difference between swatches that at first glance look exactly the same. Do this right and you CAN'T fail this test; assuming you aren't color blind.

Of course, since I have been working on website designs for so long, and I know the Hex Triplet Color Code like the back of my hand... I have an inclination from seeing the minor differences in different hues of colors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors

This test does NOT test only color-blindness. It also tests luminosity blindness and chroma blindness. Even if you are color blind, you could theoretically get a perfect score on this test by only evaluating the luminosity values and the chroma.

this test is rigged. whitey only got 211 and to him my hair looks green
211 is actually a REALLY BAD score.
