    Only 22%. I did expect a little bit more but I guess the fact that math and science do not interest me at all took down the number a bit.

    Err, there is a way much easier to see if you are a nerd.

    How many partners have you had?
    How many computers/major upgrades to your computer have you had?

    If the number of partners are more than the number of computers/upgrades, you are not a nerd.

    If the number of partners are equal to the number of computers/upgrades, you are not a nerd, but on the edge.

    If the number of partners are less than the number of computers/upgrades, you are definatly a nerd.


    No need for those large tests, this is much better.

    1% scored higher (more nerdy), and
    99% scored lower (less nerdy).

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!!

    Humm, my first post here... What a nice intro :p
    (And the worst thing is that I answered all question by truth :p )

    OMG... I never thought I would get this kind of score (I thought about 70-80% is just right):

    I thought that these responses would disqualify me from that kind of score:
    -- telnet/ssh -- ca. once a month (when I need to order from a library -- i prefer it to web clients);
    -- I don't have a microscope, laptop, or any of the gizmos mentioned (I don't know, but it should qualify me somewhere around 10% if not less ;) );
    -- I didn't recognise Maxwell (answered: Planck);
    -- I don't subscribe to any of the pop-science mags;
    -- first thing I noticed was her face, although if it was a larger crop, I'd probably answer: ;chromatic abberation on the blinds (that's the first thing that appears once you scroll down)
    -- Casio is my favourite brand of calculators;
    -- "Nothing, it's clean" -- really, there's nothing that would gross out anyone (even my girlfriend) in my room -- except perhaps for the general untidyness of my workspace;
    I thought all that shouldn't land me a score higher than 60% (at most), but 95%??? That's absurd...

    62% nerd, and 62% had a lower score than I did. I can almost promise that anyone in college receives this same score.

    87% scored higher (more nerdy), and
    13% scored lower (less nerdy).

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    Not nerdy, but then again maybe not all that cool either.

    I'm not that nerdy, though I'm not cool either...

    Caleb*- err, in that case I'm definatley a nerd due to my extremely low partner number; I've had more than two upgrades which means... :eek: :(
