10. That test is biased!!!
Edited on Sat May-22-04 09:28 PM by Lisa0825
It was weighted for computer nerds. We Biology nerds get NO respect!!!

You answered "yes" to 35 of 100 questions, making you 65.0% nerd pure (35.0% nerd corrupt); that is, you are 65.0% pure in the nerd domain (you have 35.0% nerd in you).
Your Weirdness Factor (AKA Uniqueness Factor) is 31%, based on a comparison of your test results with 378675 other submissions for this test.

The average purity for this test is 73.7%.

17. This test is weirdly timebound
Edited on Sat May-22-04 11:00 PM by starroute
I'm not sure whether I'm too old for it ("Have you ever played D&D" -- note that it's not even saying "AD&D") or whether it's too old for me ("Have you ever owned a modem.") Either way, it seems stuck somewhere about 1985 (or whenever Rubik's Cubes were at their peak.)

Not to mention the stuff I can't even remember -- like whether I owned a Maxwell's Equations T-shirt, or whether it was really a sweatshirt, or whether it was my roommate who owned one and not me. Bah.

All of which is by way of leading up to say that this silly thing thinks I'm 69% nerd pure, but it doesn't know me very well.

19. 72% nerd pure
Perhaps I'll print out these results and write an essay on the analysis of the trends. That'll show those jocks who beat me up every day for my lunch money...

Just joking, just joking. I'm one of the lucky geeks who is blessed with friends and no bullying :)
