Okay, about what I'd have expected
Big on math, science, and history (though so much on the literature).
Interested in technology (but not orgasmically so, and not impressed just because it's new).
Not much for Sci-Fi and Comics (I liked the Marvel Comics back in the 60s but they went downhill quickly and I haven't been back)
And yeah, pretty low on the "Dumb/Dork" (though, if "Awkward" were a separate category, I'd probably have scored highly as a teen)
Via Andrea.

Posted by: Julie at October 12, 2007 08:11 PMAwkward is definitely an awkward word, kind of like a zen-ironic sledgehammer to the nose.

For Sci-Fi/Comic: 12% scored higher

For Computers/Technology: 30% scored higher
For History/Literature: 11% scored higher
From this time forward, you'll hold the title: Uber Cool Nerd King
Heh!

BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!
I don't know why I didn't do better on the dumb/dork score. I specifically said that I was taking this test to beat someone else's score. Also, nerdiousity is not a word. Nerdosity, maybe, or possibly nerdicity, but never nerdiousity. I mean, the very idea...
Posted by: Angie Schultz at October 12, 2007 10:49 PMI'm a cool Literature/History Geek. (I think I scored lower on Math/Science because I openly admit my fear of Calculus. I don't HATE it, I merely FEAR it.)
Posted by: ricki at October 13, 2007 05:47 AMThere's no reason to fear calculus. It's merely algebra writ continuous.
All bow before Angie!

Posted by: Nightfly at October 14, 2007 10:23 AMHee hee ... I took this the other day. I'm not nearly as goobery as I thought I was ... about 40 percent. :) Now, there were no questions about Star Trek, so .... take that into consideration.
Posted by: Army of Mom at October 14, 2007 08:17 PMI would have scored much higher on the Sci FI if there had been questions on actual Sci Fi, instead of mostly on that pseudo-Sci Fi crap Star Trek and Star Wars. Also, I don't do comics either. But I got a respectable Uber Cool Nerd God:
Science/Math: 99
Sci-Fi/Comic: 37
Computers/Technology: 85
History/Literature: 97
Dumb/Dork: 3
