Is 14 a good color vision score?

A 14 color vision score sits in the Elite tier โ€” faster than the vast majority of people who take a benchmark like this. This is the band you see in trained athletes, competitive gamers, and people who have spent years building reflex speed. 14 is the canonical Elite cutoff used in color vision score benchmarks. Against the standard benchmarks, your 14 score is exactly at the Elite cutoff (14), 2 points ahead of the Fast cutoff (12), and 4 points ahead of the Average cutoff (10). The nearest indexed bucket is 12 (Fast). Take the Color Blind Test to see how your live performance compares.

Frequently asked questions

Is 14 a good color vision score?

Yes โ€” 14 is in the Elite tier, comfortably above the average band (10). Most untrained adults would not hit this on a typical attempt.

How does 14 compare to the average?

The Average threshold on the Color Blind Test is 10. Your 14 is in the Elite band relative to that. Elite performers cross 14; Fast performers cross 12.

How can someone push past 14?

Consistent practice โ€” same environment, same time of day, same input device โ€” is the biggest lever. Take the Color Blind Test a few times per week, sleep well, and watch how your score drifts toward the Fast (12) and Elite (14) thresholds over a few weeks.
