I've done this test before, in an interview, but I don't know the results.

4+7+4+2+4+4+6+3+4+6=44

So 44 it is. Gimme those results. Am I a freak? I think the test is about being a self confident person, in- or extravert, positive or pessimistic right?

I hate personality tests. Most of it is like:
Do u beat ur wife?
A\ Often (3 points)
B\ Sometimes (2 points)
C\ Never (1 point)
If u got:
3 points: U r extremely aggressive. Consult a doctor.
2 points: U r quite aggressive. U should calm down a bit.
1 point: U r a very sensible person and its not easy to make u blood boil. Congrats!

EDIT: OK, I got 52 :crazyboy:

46. I have a feeling that higher scores are probably mean you are a more aggressive person, and go head on into problems and the like.

The Earth has now made one full rotation since I posted the 'test', which means that most of us would now have looked at it and decided to either 'give it a go 'cos I'm bored/interested' (delete as appropriate) or 'not bothering because I hate personality tests. They never say anything accurate about me anyway.' ;)

Here's what it's all supposed to mean. No prizes for highest score. :)

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care". You're seen as vain, self-centered, and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you, wishing they could be more like you, but don't always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.

51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.

41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.

31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.

21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.

UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions and who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or anything. They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don't exist. Some people think you're boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren't.

Consider yourselves pidgeon-holed. ;)

I got 45 so that means that "Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who's constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out."

but to be honest I somehow feel more comfortable with "others see you as sensible, cautious, careful practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who's extremely loyal to friends you do make and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken"

Oh well. Interesting to have done though.

AHAHAH! That's a relief. :P


Well, to be honest, I think I have a bit of each category in me. I can remember times when my actions were depicted by all of those categories. Still, I think I'm closest to the 31 TO 40 POINTS, than the one I got (41 TO 50 POINTS).:confused:

Interesting stuff.

Avalanche
10-01-2003, 06:30:PM
hmmmmmmm........ some of that stuff was a lie, but then again, just like the psychic hotline, its for :drevil: entertainment purposes only :drevil: . even tho the results said that im lively and interesting (which i am), i can b a jerk @ times. in fact my friends have said that i am famous for my random outbursts.

That paragraph represents me perfectly.... but the thing is, I got 40 points. If I had one more, it would go to the 41-50 category, which is nothing like me.:crazyboy:

some points, I agree with this evaluation. I'm a very cautious person, determining what I have to do next thing before directly doing it.

talented or gifted...well, I don't think I have one yet... :confused:

loyalty friend...hmm...this one I agree, I still have a loyal friend from Japan for 2 yrs who help me out to study Macroeconomics together before the tests every time. :) In return, I give him the same offer in Microeconomics classes...

They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest, a natural leader, who's quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones.

I got the points, but I only share some of this attributes.


These tests will never be anything near conclusive.
