Start keeping journals. When you start a new project, start a new journal. Record your thoughts. If you have to make a particularly hard decision, write out your thought process and what you ultimately decided. Then review those journals every year or two. Ask yourself if you would have done anything different based on the experiences and knowledge you've accumulated. Also, seek criticism. Learn from others. And read as much as you can! :) I don't think there's any one litmus test that will give you a grade. It's a process of practiced introspection. Know thyself! :)
