... so did Davey :wub: even with half of our answers being different... Rich got a 36 :P Pretty accurate if you ask me...

 

Below is Dr. Phil's test. (Dr. Phil scored 55; he did this test on Oprah - she got a 38.) Some folks pay a lot of money to find this stuff out!

 

Don't be overly sensitive! The following is pretty accurate and it only takes 2 minutes.

 

Answers are for who you are now --- not who you were in the past. Have pen or pencil and paper.

 

This is a real test given by the Human Relations Dept. at many of the major corporations today. It helps them get better insight concerning their employees and prospective employees It's only 10 Simple questions, so grab a pencil and paper, keeping track of your letter answers to each question.

 

Ready??

 

Begin.

 

 

1. When do you feel your best?

 

a. in the morning

b. during the afternoon and early evening

a. stand with your arms folded

b. have your hands clasped

c. have one or both your hands on your hips

5. When something really amuses you, you react with...

 

a. a big appreciated 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. 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 & 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.

 

 

I'll post my answers below in case you're interested....

 

Hugs, Viv

 

PS. I just saw that there is going to be a guest writer reviewing our anthology entries :o OMFG! :D

I got an even 44 but I don't think that's really correct. At least I don't see myself as being in the center of attention etc.

 

But anyway test taken and people say tests don't lie ^_^

 

 

Have a great day and :hug:

a. your knees bent with your legs neatly side by side

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

(It's definitely not A, and it's most like B, but really it's sorta a combination of B, C, D, and E. I'm on my stomach for the most part, but it's sorta resting halfway on a verticle pillow, so my side is what's actually on the bed, but my head is sideways, resting an arm, often largely covered by the covers)

 

10. You often dream that you are...

f. your dreams are always pleasant

(not always, usually more neutral actually, but I do have them, and they very rarely include any of those other things and they are typically more pleasant than unpleasant)

 

 

 

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.

...I guess so, but I'm pretty much on the boarder between that and:

They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who'll always cheer them up and help them out.'

 

Especially when you consider all my sorta split answers, and I think I like the 2nd reading better, so I'll go with that one :P

 

Interesting quiz, Viv!

 

Thanks for sharing!

Have an awesome day and take care!

2. A

3. C

4. D

5. A

6. B

7. B

8. E

9. C

10. E

 

= 39 0:)

Hey Kevin, I being the collector of lost souls :lol: feel it's my duty to inform you :blink: that you got a 47, so you fall right in to the category that made you the happiest. I'm happy to say no Dr Phil in your future. :P

They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure.

I don't know quite what to make of this... That is actually a decent description of the offline me. Umm, actually, the "handle carefully" part of the 60+ catagory applies too: I'm not easy to anger, but, when my temper blows, it is usually memorable.

 

Online, though, I am very much the shy and quiet type. 0:)

 

PS. I just saw that there is going to be a guest writer reviewing our anthology entries ohmy.gif OMFG! biggrin.gif

 

Yep! We started that with the Fairy Tales anthology. Whether or not it's the same guest writer, though, I can't say. :)

Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and always interesting. They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding. Really ?
