There has been a "test" going around, which I think is incorrect, but I'm not sure. The test says: Put your 
hands together and fold your fingers, like you were praying. If your right thumb goes on top, you are 
left- brained. If your left thumb goes on top you are right brained. The reason why I think this is false 
is because there has been many sites that contradicted with this test. First of all, I'm a lefty. Second of 
all, I'm actually very creative, and I'm moderately good with mathematics, etc. However, my right thumb 
goes about my left one. So, is the test legitimate?
