Ready for a test?


Have pen or pencil and paper ready. 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.
(Be sure to keep score)

Ready?? Begin..

[font color=green]
1. When do you feel your best:
a) in the morning

a) stand with your arms folded
b) have your hands clasped
c) have one or both your hands on your hips

4. When relaxing, you sit with:
a) your knees bent with your legs neatly side by side
b) your legs crossed
c) your legs stretched out or straight
d) one leg curled under you

5. When something really amuses you, you react with:
a) a big, appreciative 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:
a) make a loud entrance so everyone notice you
b) make a quiet entrance, looking around for someone you know
c) make the quietest entrance, trying to stay unnoticed

7. You're working very hard, concentrating hard, and you're interrupted- do you:
a) welcome the break
b) feel extremely irritated
c) vary between these two extremes

8. Which of the following colors do you like most?
a) Red or orange
b) black
c) yellow or light blue
d) green
e) dark blue or purple
f) white
g) brown or gray

9. When you are in bed at night, in those last few moments before going to sleep, you lie:

[/font]
















POINTS
[font color=blue]

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
[/font]



Now add up the total number of points -

[font color=red]
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

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 it 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 and 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.

So you failed to mention your score, sup with dat?
My score is easy to remember, it equaled my age.

Interesting test, thanks.

And honestly, it came from another message board. But then again - I have no idea what sort of people are at the other board. Could be cross-dressers for all I know!

But I thot it was innerestin...

Dan came in at a 42. I think I blew it on the color and dream thing. Neither one really applied to me. Favorite color????? Depends on what I'm looking at. I would guess that most people would score me in the next range. But I could be wrong :P

Cool test.

*Edited for:*

Ok I just did the test based on Steve's habbits & he scores a 44, still dead on.

36 and yes, it's pretty close. But I agree with Dan, none of the dream ones fit me, and I'm the same way with colors.
