    Dr Phil's Test

    Here you go... try this!

    Below is Dr Phil's test. (Dr. Phil scored 55; he did this test on Oprah - she got a 38.) Some folks pay a lot of money to find this stuff out!

    Read on, this is very interesting!

    Don't be overly sensitive! The following is pretty accurate and it only takes 2 minutes. Take this test for yourself and send it to your friends.

    The person who sent it placed their score in the e-mail subject box. Please do the same before forwarding to your friends (also, send it back to the person who sent it to you.) Don't peek, but begin the test as you scroll down and answer.

    Answers are for who you are now...... not who you were in the past. Have a 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 to each question.

    Make sure to change the subject of the e-mail to read YOUR total. When you are finished, forward this to friends/family, and also send it to the person who sent this to you. Make sure to put YOUR score in the subject box!

    Now add up the total number of points.

    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 takes 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 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.

    It's ok. Allow me to fix that:

    I think only gay people would take this test. (hope that helps). :D

    I'm 43, though I really see myself as much more introverted than the description provided.

    Yeah, I scored a 49 but would probably fall under one of the under 30 descriptions. Doesn't seem like a very good test, showing me to be more personable than Oprah.

    I took this a long time ago before I even heard of Dr. Phil, so I doubt it's his test. I got a 46.

    Reportedly Dr. Phil scored a 60 so he probably just appropriated it as his own.

    36, pretty accurate description, but it forgot to mention my ridiculously large penis.

    I was a 34. Some parts are accurate, and some aren't. Some of the questions didn't really have any answers that matched either.

    The test is stupid. If you sit with your legs crossed people see you as more exciting and volatile?

    Yea, I dont know how accurate this really is.

    Some of the answers provided didnt really apply fully to me...I had to compromise and pick the one that was closest to my actions.
    Some of them (like how I walk, and what I do while listening to others and when I feel best) change depending on a variety of factors.

    I scored 41, but the description in the 31-40 range was MUCH more accurate than the 41-50 was.

    btw...Am I the only one that gets an urge to drown kittens if forced to listen to Dr :rolleyes: Phil for too long (more than 10 seconds)?

    You are not the only one at all. Just seeing his name made me want to mutilate destroy and kill anything I could get my hands on.

    I don't have a definite answer to half of the questions. What does that imply?
    Am I too self-unware to be tested?
