How Tech-Savvy Are You?

If you’re someone who doesn’t consider themselves tech-savvy, take our quiz to find out the truth.

I’m not tech-savvy.

Technology and I don’t agree.

I don’t have the patience for those things.

These are statements I’ve heard within the last week from a member of my family. Each time, I’ve succumbed to explaining how they are doing much better than they give themselves credit for. If you’re someone who believes they aren’t tech-savvy enough, let’s put it to the test.

Quiz Rules:

  • Answer honestly.
  • Give yourself 1 point for every ‘yes’ you answer. Give yourself 0 points for every ‘no’ answer.

1. Do you own any kind of cell phone? (Flip phones are included)
2. Do you know how to turn it on, off, and make calls?

Results

0-7 Yes’s: So this test was a little hard… you made it through and still scored something. You may not be racing out to purchase the latest and greatest tech, but you’re doing better than you realize.
