Tweak the sound level until you can hear the voice comfortably and clearly.
For more precise results, we recommend you don’t use your computer speakers.
Take the test in about 5 mins
During the test, you will be presented with six sound clips depicting everyday scenarios, such as people talking in a busy bar or somebody asking for directions in the street.
At the end of the clip, you will be asked a question on what you’ve just heard and must pick from four options. Once you’ve answered the six questions, you will be given a score out of ten and a recommendation based on your test results.
If the hearing test detects you may be suffering from hearing loss, we recommend you book online for a free hearing check with one of our hearing specialists.
