Yes folks, yet another test. Heck, everyone else is doing it so I might add me own
Answers are for who you are now...not who you were in the past. This is a real test given by the Human Relations Dept. at many of the major corporations today. It helps them get a better insight concerning their employees and potential employees. It's only 10 simple questions, so... Grab a pencil and paper, keeping track of your letter answers. Ready? Begin... 1. When do you feel your best? (a) in the morning (b) during the afternoon; early evening (c) late at night 2. You usually walk (a) fairly fast, with long steps (b) fairly fast, with short, quick steps (c) less fast head up, looking the world in the face (d) less fast, head down (e) very slowly 3. When talking to people you (a) stand with your arms folded (b) have your hands clasped (c) have one or both your hands on your hips (d) touch or push the person to whom you are talking (e) play with your ear, touch your chin, or smooth your hair 4. When relaxing, you sit with (a) your knees bent with your legs neatly side by side (b) your legs crossed (c) your legs stretched out or straight (d) one leg curled under you 5. When something really amuses you, you react with (a) a big, appreciative laugh (b) a laugh, but not a loud one (c) a quiet chuckle (d) a sheepish smile 6. When you go to a party or social gathering you.. (a) make a loud entrance so everyone notices you (b) make a quiet entrance, looking around for someone you know (c) make the quietest entrance, trying to stay unnoticed 7. You're working very hard, concentrating hard, and you're interrupted. Do you: (a) welcome the break (b) feel extremely irritated (c) vary between these two extremes 8. Which of the following colors do you like most? (a) red or orange (b) black (c) yellow or light blue (d) green (e) dark blue or purple (f) white (g) brown or gray 9. When you are in bed at night, in those last few moments before going to sleep, you lie: (a) stretched out on your back (b) stretched out face down on your stomach (c) on your side, slightly curled (d) with your head on one arm (e) with your head under the covers 10. You often dream that you are (a) falling (b) fighting or struggling (c) searching for something or somebody (d) flying or floating (e) you usually have dreamless sleep (f) your dreams are always pleasant POINTS: 1.(a) 2 (b) 4 (c) 6 2.(a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 7 (d) 2 (e) 1 3.(a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 5 (d) 7 (e) 6 4.(a) 4 (b) 6 (c) 2 (d) 1 5.(a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 2 6.(a) 6 (b) 4 (c) 2 7.(a) 6 (b) 2 (c) 4 8.(a) 6 (b) 7 (c) 5 (d) 4 (e) 3 (f) 2 (g) 1 9.(a) 7 (b) 6 (c) 4 (d) 2 (e) 1 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 and 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 expects the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust on 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 a 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. |

I scored a "55", which means:
"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." Sounds like I'm full of "fire and music"! [img]tongue.gif[/img] -Saz

OKI, the pshycic evaluation went like this:
1. c 2. a 3. a 4. d 5. b 6. b 7. c 8. b 9. d 10.c To the result 39 points. Hmm, well people might think of me like this, but some of the questions would have put me up or down a couple of points.. Espacially the sleeping one. What do you say when you sometimes squirm around like a chipmunk looking for a nut?? Not able to sleep? Sorry, hehe, mostly true I guess!

1. c
2. a 3. a 4. b 5. a 6. b 7. b 8. b 9. c 10. c 47 points. That does make some sense, although I would place myself in the category of 31 to 40 points. |
