The ADA Diabetes Risk Test (often called the “60-second diabetes risk test”) is a short questionnaire used to estimate your risk of having or developing type 2 diabetes or prediabetes. It’s promoted by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and CDC as a quick screening tool people can do at home or in clinics.
