VARK Questionnaire

I have completed a VARK Questionnaire as it is supposed to determine what type of learner I am. There are 4 types of learning known as:

1. V - Visual Learner
2. A - Aural Learner
3. R - Read/Write Learner
4. K - Kinesthetic Learner

The questionnaire is a multiple choice questionnaire of 16 questions which will calculate the answers you chose provide you with the type of learner you are.

The most category which came up for me was a Kinesthetic learner with the others not to far behind. I assume that I'm a type of person who learns with a combination with a bit of all the VARK categories. But the most category was Kinesthetic because I think that I'm a person that prefers to learn by touch and doing with what I have been given.
