Are You Nerdier Than Half the Population?

[Evo]

This is the second time you two have matched so closely on a quiz posted here. It's a match made in cyber-heaven!

Heh, we just went over the test and if he hadn't answered a question wrong, he'd have scored 97% nerd.

 

[DeadWolfe]

Overall, you scored as follows:

3% scored higher (more nerdy), and
97% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

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

 

[moose]

We're throwing off the average

21% scored higher (more nerdy), and
79% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Mid-Level Nerd. Wow, it takes a lot of hard nerdy practice to reach this level.

 

[Mk]

5% scored higher (more nerdy), and
95% scored lower (less nerdy).

Oh yeah.

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

 

[Schrodinger's Dog]

God I only got 52% scored higher, I'm starting to feel bad about not owning a microscope or a telescope, and having a social life?

 

[mathwonk]

isnt this a little like asking "how conservative are you?" on the NRA website?

No it's exactly like that.

I just wanted to see how I compare.

Actually to be honest I thought it'd be a giggle.

 

[russ_watters]

I do have both a microscope and a telescope in the house. When I was younger, a great deal of my time was taken up by making my own slides.

I think my microscope is still at my parents' house. I haven't used it a good 15 years, though.

Maybe I'm getting less nerdy (doubt it), but for the first time ever, I can't remember what processor my desktop computer has. And while I've never known my IP address, I do have my work IP on a post-it in my wallet...

 

[Mk]

If I didn't have a dynamic IP I'd know the address. Aw

 

[interested_learner]

11% more nerdy, 89% less nerdy. High level nerd.

 

[Anttech]

Not only do I know my IP address, but I also know what an IP address is in fact I even have an x25 address, but I am hardly a nerd, more of a geek:
24% scored higher (more nerdy), and
76% scored lower (less nerdy).

 

[DieCommie]

5% scored higher (more nerdy),
0% scored the same, and
95% scored lower (less nerdy).

I wish they told how they weight the different responses.

 

[Moonbear]

If I didn't have a dynamic IP I'd know the address. Aw

I think that having a static IP address in order to know it is what really gains the nerd points there.

 

[verty]

You can still know the range, like mine starts with 80.42.163 or something like that. I got 78th percentile.

 

[Maxwells Demon]

ohhh God.. I was completely honest..

6% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
93% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Supreme Nerd. Apply for a professorship at MIT now!.

 

[Maxwells Demon]

I don't feel like a nerd at all, I'm just naturally curious..

 

[dontdisturbmycircles]

26% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
73% scored lower (less nerdy).

I had to lie on the calculator question. TI was my favorite among those listed, but I personally like the Pickett N4-ES Hyperbolic Dual Base Speed Rule.

I think the test discriminates against the analog crowd.

 

[Artman]

10% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
89% scored lower (less nerdy).

Considering I made my own Telescope (5 or 6 of them actually) and microscope, I should have thought I would have scored higher. I think I lost points because I have friends.

You also need an old bamboo and ivory slide rule in a heavy leather belt holster (voice of experience, here!).

Or a circular slide rule. They can fit right in behind your pocket protector... Or so I've been told.
