Reading/Writing or Math/Science. You must choose. But choose wisely.?

Question

Hey there guys, I'm working on a survey for my bio statistics class and I was wondering if you guys could help me out! It should take less than 30 seconds.

1. Are you male or female?

2. Would you say you're better at math/science or reading/writing?

3a. If you answered math/science as your preference, I would suspect your RING finger (not the middle finger) is longer than your INDEX finger.

3b. If you answered reading/writing as your preference, I would suspect your INDEX finger is longer than your RING finger.

(It should be easier to tell which finger is longer if you place your hand on a flat surface as opposed to looking at it in the air.) Are my statements true or false?

My goal is 100+ observations by Tuesday the 19th so thank you so much for helping me out! You guys are awesome.

I'm a research scientist (so math/science) but I do a lot of reading and writing in my job (so reading/writing)
