How many puzzles can you do in 3 minutes?

How many of the puzzles below can you do in 3 minutes? You just have to figure out what pattern would go next in the sequence. Eg. For the first one, it'd be a down arrow. This is part of an experiment I am carrying out to do with how people do on these puzzles with music vs without; if you could try to do as many of them as you can in 3 minutes without music that'd be great, and type how many you managed to answer below. I have an idea of an average score so if an answer seems very out of the ordinary I will probably know it is not real and discard it. Thanks :smile:

I get what you are saying but they are abstract so there are other answers for most of them; however general consensus usually gives us what can be deemed as the correct answer, especially in puzzles like this where speed is key.

19 or maybe 18. Not sure on question 14 (the answer that should according to my logic follow looks kind of weird) and don't really have a clue on 17 (is it just box 1 again lol)
