    I took the test and while I'm somewhat nerdy, there is still a lot of room for improvement. 52% of users got a more nerdier score than myself.

    27% scored higher (more nerdy),
    1% scored the same, and
    72% scored lower (less nerdy).

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    Mid-Level Nerd.

    I'm on boards on friday night taking a nerd test, I think you can add a few thousand points there

    1% scored the same, and
    67% scored lower (less nerdy).

    I didn't think i was that much of a nerd, but I am good at guessing, so maybe i got those answers right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,396 ✭✭✭Frosty McSnowballs


    51% scored higher (more nerdy),
    2% scored the same, and
    47% scored lower (less nerdy).

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    Somewhat nerdy. I mean face it, you are nerdier than about half the test takers.


  • Moderators, Education Moderators Posts: 26,403 Mod ✭✭✭✭Peregrine


    I'm a mid level nerd. 24% are nerdier.

    The questions based on the American education system were annoying..

    Damnit, I can't even be nerdy!

    To be honest with you Diane, I'm surprised. I mean I'm spending my Friday night reading the API documentation for a C++ library. For fun.

    44% scored higher (more nerdy),
    1% scored the same, and
    55% scored lower (less nerdy).

    Just as I suspected...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,817 ✭✭✭✭Charlie19


    I think as BlueWolf said taking the test on a Friday night is enough evidence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,641 ✭✭✭Teyla Emmagan


    I am a high level nerd and should apply to MIT immediately apparently. I must have guessed those scientists correctly then.

    14% scored higher than me.

    I think this test may be broken however.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭lintdrummer


    Fairly average, which is accurate.

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    Low Ranking Nerd. Definitely a nerd but low on the totem pole of nerds.


    That's the worst place to be... now the cool kids won't accept me and the nerds won't take me seriously :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,073 ✭✭✭✭bnt


    Another high-level Nerd here, albeit one too old for MIT. Yes, I have an actual RPN calculator (HP 35s) as well as software versions on my home and work computers.

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    My niece was right all along. Low ranking nerd, how dare they.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,159 ✭✭✭mrkiscool2


    Only 4% of people are nerdier than me apparently, and 0 % are the same. But that's not right, because another person on here was also nerdier than 96% of people. They aren't using a proper algorithm the lazy bastards!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,421 ✭✭✭major bill


    for someone that works in IT I am happy with the ''Not Nerdy but Not hip'' result

    :cool:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭zenno


    Without nerds, the world would be a boring place. The next top nerd could change history forever. I'm a low ranking nerd according to the results :D but the folks up top are the masters of new things to come.

    Creativity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,080 ✭✭✭✭Maximus Alexander


    Creativity is not a prerequisite for nerdiness. And indeed vice-versa.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭zenno

    I believe it is, in a nerdy way.

    I is a Noid too.

    Well..more nerdy than 50% of the people who took the test.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,377 ✭✭✭zenno


    I don't know how this compares against the regular people coolness table though.

    Neither do I, I'm just going by the test results. I'm lost, because I'm not a nerd, but I've been told I am, so I think I will be open-minded. But regarding coolness ? I'm cool, because I have my window open with fresh cool air keeping me cool while I type this. But ye know what... I'm cool but in a completely different way :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,268 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Not nerdy, but definitely not hip.
    Sounds about right.
