This really fits me really well. Dr. Phil scored 55; he did this test on Oprah-she got a 38. Don't be overly sensitive! The following is pretty accurate and it only takes 2 minutes. Take this test for yourself and tell me how it does or doesn't 'get you' right. Answers are for who you are now......not who you were in the past. It's only 10 Simple questions, so..... Grab a pencil and paper, keeping track of your letter answers to each question. Make sure to change the subject of the bulletin to read YOUR total. 1. When do you feel your best? a) in the morning b) during the afternoon and early evening c) late at night 2. You usually walk... a) fairly fast, with long steps b) fairly fast, with little steps c) less fast head up, looking the world in the face d) less fast, head down e) very slowly 3. When talking to people you.. a) stand with your arms folded b) have your hands clasped c) have one or both your hands on your hips d) touch or push the person to whom you are talking e) play with your ear, touch your chin, or smooth your hair 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) big appreciated 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 you.. a) make a loud entrance so everyone notices 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...... 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 are. a) stretched out on your back b) stretched out face down on your stomach c) on your side, slightly curled d) with your head on one arm e) with your head under the covers 10. You often dream that you are.. a) falling b) fighting or struggling c) searching for something or somebody d) flying or floating e) you usually have dreamless sleep f) your dreams are always pleasant POINTS: 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.

OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should "handle with care." You're seen as vain, self-centered, and 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 take chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate. 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 & 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.

I'm not really sure who devised it. I got it in an email about a year ago and then the other day someone posted it on myspace. I thought it would make for an interesting discussion :)

I managed to score a 53; meaning I'm fun to be with! Wooohoo! That's how others view me. Fun, energetic, adventurous. I cannot say that that's not true. That's the kind of person I am when I'm out there. What they don't know is, being so energetic all the time (I am restless and I have a lot to say), it is very hard to put up with those who hang out just to be entertained. In my group of friends, I feel that I'm the only one that's making a decision when it comes to "where to go?" or "what to do today?" and frankly, I'm getting sick of that.

LOL. I guess your friends just know you'll pick the funniest place to go to have a great time :) They trust you. As I know it maybe annoying - it's kind of a compliment.

I scored a 37. Which at first, I thought, wow...that is low..this is not going to be good. LOL But then I read it.... 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. And you know, that does fit me very well! Heck, look at the last word given in the description. ha ha ha

i scored a 37 and it does describe me pretty well. i do not make friends that easily and i do trust people to a certain extent but if they betray me it is hard for them to get it back.

I scored a 38. I think the results are very true to my personality, especially the part about how I feel about friends. I always wonder how they come up with criteria that will give these type of results and be accurate.

It is really cool how they come up with the "descriptions". It would be neat to know how they do it.

I scored 47. Pretty accurate, although I would have seen myself as wavering between that and the category below it. Interesting thanks for that! :)
