Your highest score indicates which your strongest learning style is, your lowest
score shows your weakest. There is no right, or perfect, learning style: everyone
is, to some degree, a mixture of all three learning styles, but most people may
have one learning style which is dominant. A score of more than 40 indicates a
particularly strong style; a score of under 20 indicates quite a weak style.
