10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1

Now add up the total number of points.

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 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 & 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.

Boy, that's a very difficult quiz!

I had difficulty answering almost all questions! Everything depends.

1. it depends on what I ate and how much sleep I got the previous night.

2. walk to where?

3. what should I choose if I keep my hands in my pants pockets or crossed behind me?

4. seems like one relaxing by sitting. I relax by lying down.

5. depends on where I am and who are around me

6. Now THIS was easiest to answer.

7. depends on the work and who's interrupting

8. I like several of the choices. Do I have multiple personalities?

9. and 10. just like number 6, easy to answer.

Anyway, I just chose the best I could and fell between 41 to 50. But what I read there seemed like a complete stranger.

I wonder how such tests and their interpretations are made? The interpretations seem to center on how others see you, but is it the real you?

Just my mind wandering off in many directions. :wink:

I came up 35 and it was fairly accurate.
I think these type of quizzes are fun but I won�t put to much faith in the accuracy.

I'm with you, Gerry. Where is "stand with your hands at your side" or "sit with your ankles crossed"? There should be a "none of the above" choice. But these things can be interesting to try anyway.

I came up 47, but agree, I usually stand w/my arms
at my sides, unless carrying or holding something -
frequently the case.

And my favorite color may depend on my mood at
the time.

Fun, but not sure how reliable for employnent purposes

Very Interesting, Mad Sci.

On the Econ Left/Right I fell - 4.63 Middle of the left side
of the graph line.
On the Soc. Lib/Auth part I fell at 0.36 More Libertarian

The other quizes are interesting too, but I didn't have time
to finish them.

Thanks. That was fun 8)
