Taking our reaction time test is very simple. Simply click the test area once to get the test to start. The box will turn red so you know you need to be prepared. It will then randomly turn green, once it turns green you will need to click as quickly as possible to see your reaction time.
It is good to know your reaction time whether it is for gaming or even for work. Being able to click quickly and have good reflexes will give you a better advantage over the competition. Also, it is good to see how you measure against the average reaction time for people your age.
A good reaction time depends on your age. For people under 18 a good reaction time can be anywhere from 200ms to 250ms. If you are older this number begins to vary widely, in general a reaction time of 200-300ms can be regarded as average.
The average reaction time is somewhere between 200-300ms. There is a large difference in average scores across different age groups, but in general if your score is within that range you have an average score.
A below average reaction time is going to be 300ms or more. No matter what age you are this is seen as a slower than usual reaction time which means the older you are the harder it will be to maintain a score that is average, not below average.
If you find yourself getting a score of 200ms or better, you are in the above average range. Being able to hit a number under 200ms once or twice is good, but you should be able to do it often to really say it is your score.
People are able to get really lucky and click within 20ms. This is inconsistent and not easily replicatable. The best reaction time ever that is replicatable is believed to be around 75ms. If you get a score that low be sure to share it and show it off!
No one is able to identify the true “inventor” of the game and these types of tests. Through the internet, many different developers and activists alike desired to see growth and freedom online.
It is believed through the years someone with a similar mindset developed the first “test” in a playable method for free on the internet. Today, there are many variations of the test and different outlets for taking it.
A reflex check is a good alternative name for this test. You are checking how good your reflexes are with the click of a button.
Rapid response test is a term that can be used for this type of test. It is not often that you will hear this name used but it is possible.
Reaction race is a good alternative as you are always racing against yourself to get a better result. You are even competing against others at times.

For optimal results, play on a PC with a computer monitor or a laptop.
There is not specific number you should aim for, it does depend on your specific use-case and age. If you are checking because you are a gamer or something similar than you can never have a fast enough reaction time and should take this test or play more to hone your skills and results.
There are many ways to enhance your score, trying the test multiple times is the first way. Other methods include switching up your sitting position, adjusting your mouse grip, adjusting your arm positioning, etc.
If you find your reaction time is above 300ms, your score is likely on the higher end if you are a younger person. If you are older, then that is more on par with the score you should have, so it really depends. All that matters is that you have fun with it and improve!
