bit weird this test. All extremes are unpleasant, the middle ones are way too flattering...

Aren't all extremes unpleasant in all cases? Whether it be this test or anything else.

Of course not. The utmost extreme may be, but not everything on the extreme end of the scale, i.e. all that's not middle.

I got 43 Points -

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

However, I see myself a bit closer to the 30-41, I reckon I should've got a 41.
BTW on the 'while talking to someone' question, there wasn't an answer that described exactly what I do, what if your arms just hang by side?
Oh yeah, and my way of sitting wasn't their either...
*SNIFF* I must just be different.

I think it comes down to how the extremes have been interpreted

For instance, the one about strides:

I'm tall with long legs. Therefore i DO walk faster than others

In addition, you could be crossing legs or whatever because of the type of chair you sit in, not because of any psychological thing

Too much of this is open to interpretation and the scores are subject to whatever the creator of the test thought. This, however, reflects on their mind, not the subject's

35 points. The description fits, although somewhat flattering!

The one that stumped me was question 10). I do not have a dreamless sleep, however I forget many of the dreams. Those that I remember aren't pleasant, but I am not fighting, falling, or flying in those dreams! They forgot an option titled "none of the above"!

I vary in some of the options, meaning I do both. Therefor I have two results

#1 (45 points)

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.

#2 (38 points)

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.

hehehe, I'm 50.

Galadria · 02-03-2002, 03:46 PM

Hmm, 42 points. Sounds all right to me.

Roxi · 02-03-2002, 09:28 PM

I scored a 49. I don't know if this fits me at all. Especially the part about being the center of attention. I tend to Not want to be noticed above anyone else present, otherwise I'm nervous.

Also, I like to sit 'Indian style' a lot and usually avoid chairs with hard arms that my knees would bump into. *ouch!*

This was a fun test though!
