If this study were true, there would be FAR more math geniuses than writers. My index fingers are longer, and whenever I show people, they think I am some kind of sideshow freak. Most people either have the same length, or their ring fingers are longer.

I just took the new SAT and scored higher in Verbal than in Math, even though my school math scores are higher than my english ones.

My ring finger is longer than my index and bent slightly inward. So what does that mean?

I think we should do a study of Mental_Floss blog readers’ SAT scores, because judging by these comments, there’s a statistical correlation between reading this blog and wicked-high scores.

My ring finger is longer than my index finger and I do well in math subjects. I’ll have to check my boyfriend’s to see if his is the opposite because he’s always been better in English/reading. Works for me!

My ring and index fingers are exactly the same size. And while I’m better at math, I’ve always preferred English. I take my SAT on Saturday, and I’m suddenly even more curious to find out my results.

Odd. My middle finger is longer than y index and I HATE math and excel in reading and writing and only passed the math portion by a little while I did great in the others.

Both of my ring fingers are shorter than my index fingers. I learned to read when I was four years old and when I was in college I not only got A’s on all my term papers and essay’s , but I realized that I liked to write as well.As far as math scores were concerned they were never high and I had a hard time passing Elementary Algebra. So, those predictions were right on for me.

My ring finger is longer and I’m better with math. Fits me exactly.

I think it must matter where you measure your fingers from. If I go from the knuckle, my ring fingers are longer on both hands, but if I go from that little line right above my palm, my index finger is shorter.

Maybe that means I’m just an all-around genius.

Or maybe it means that this study is a load of hooey.

I’m leaning toward the latter.
