This document provides a self-test to assess a person's visual, auditory, or kinesthetic (VAK) learning style preferences. It consists of 30 questions where the respondent selects one statement from each line that most reflects their style. The total selections for each column (visual, auditory, kinesthetic/physical) indicate the respondent's relative learning style preference. The results help individuals understand their strengths and how to make best use of learning methods suited to their preferred style or styles. There are no right or wrong answers as some people have strong preferences for one style while others have more balanced preferences across multiple styles.
