Those questions are ridiculous, and the quiz is bollocks. I took it and applied the Canadian equivalent and it doesn't even get close to me. It's like someone sat down and said "These are the things that make ME believe that someone ELSE (that I don't know) is living in a cultural bubble" = Science.

Which is not the case.


How would you know that the questions are not scientifically sound? Where the method flawed, or is it just because you didn't get the score you wanted?

I tried to substitute this for Norway, which was tricky, but I ended up with a 23. For instance norway has one of the highest concentrations of university degrees in the world, so there will always be a lot of those around me no matter where I live.


I substituted for Norway, and used my experience from when I lived in the US wherever possible. I got a 53. But I grew up Norwegian-poor and was one of the first people in my family to get a college degree.


My mother holds something like five complete degrees, though none of them led to any sort of gainful employment. Her job these days is entierly unrelated to all that philosophy, history and litterature.



I have the awesomest job now, and it too is completely unrelated to my degree :)
Things and stuffs...and other important objects.

Substituted Australian for 'Murrican and scored 62.


Retook (8 years later) because why not and got 65. I am nothing if not consistent. Or just nothing.

Wow - I got a 40 with a 37 from the thread start. This quiz has been updated and it's still accurate.
I survived the Permian and all I got was this t-shirt.
