I scored 90.

Is there something you meant to post? :-p


Now i have lost the test, it was there a minute ago honest, that one is down the plug hole for sure as i came across it by accident.

You can find it in your "history".

Yay, cleaver clogs :biggrin:

I got 160, so I'm smack dab in the middle.
 
Both posted tests are the exact same test, but Wolram's explains how the points were assigned.

Funny, I almost made a comment about the question about whether the testee was male or female in light of the disclaimer that there were no right or wrong answers, only preferences. Turns out the answer you give to that question affects your test score.

Wow BobG you are even more manlier than I am. Honestly I have no idea on the credentials of this test-it apparently has something to do with a theoretical autistic-gayness spectrum.
 
170 right in the middle
 
what is my score if i get bored with it after 12 questions?
 
Scored a 50.

Manly man coming through!
 
60. I'm a steaming hot volcano of manliness.

Hot stuff coming through?
 
The hottest. Like, Planck time after the Big Bang hot.

Or perhaps like Simpsons S08E15's "http://hotstuffcomingthrough.ytmnd.com/" "..

Hmmm... I scored a 90 too. :rolleyes: Does that mean I lose my high-heeled sister-shoes and become one of the guys?
 
Hahaha "A friend has something mechanical that won't work. You would: Sympathize and discuss how they feel about it"

THAT will solve the problem...

Oh, don't worry, those orthopedic shoes with support hose that the PF sisterhood wears don't have very high heels anyway. :rolleyes: I think it just means you're a physicist.

Some just seemed odd. For example, the one about how you'd give directions if someone CALLED you for directions. How would you draw them a map over the phone? :rolleyes:
 
I scored 180

I got -15 for being a man, and 20 if I was a woman.

Whoa. That's intimidating. You must sweat testosterone.

Yep, learn how to stretch a 10 min coffee break to 20 mins, scratch yer bum and say, it will take at least 4hrs boss.

physics girl scratches bum, grabs coffee and sits at the computer for four hours looking at Jimmy Choos online to regain sister-sense... :biggrin:

Fax it to them over the phone line. Geez, some people. :rolleyes:

Hand gestures help a lot.

You know you're getting close when the road kind of narrows down into two lanes, then when you get to the split you want the road that head off, oh ... about a 120 degrees to the left, then up this big hill ...

See, wasn't that much clearer? It even when works on internet forums!

We need hand gesture smilies!
 
Some of the questions are wrong, like the one about where you would sit in a movie theater. Everyone knows that there is a correct place to sit and it isn't right or left, it is in the center. Others asked about remembering names and faces, but the answers never had the way my brain works: I remember faces, but not names.

Anyway, I scored 75.
 
I got 130. Maybe it's the influence of all those mind-bending chemistry, physics, and math classes...?

I took the test that GCT posted. The explanation of the scoring said that the lower the score that a woman gets, the greater the likelihood that she's a lesbian, and the higher the score that a man gets, the greater the likelihood that he's gay.

Hmm...based on my own experience, I question that. When I was in college, a hot topic between me and the very few other female physics majors was our "fringe benefits" (access to lots of available males). It was a perk we had that, say, English or Drama majors didn't have. I think most of those women would score pretty low on that test, but I'm pretty sure we were all heteros.
