How Are You Perceived?



Grab a pencil and paper to keep track of your answers (a, b, c, etc.) for questions (1-10). Make sure you change
the subject of the e-mail to your score total. (I know that for some of the questions there aren't enough options
to pinpoint what your precise answer would be, but just choose the best possible answer.)

  OVER 60 POINTS:
  Others see you as someone they should "handle with care." You are
 seen as vain, self-centered, and extremely dominant. Others may admire
 you and wish they could be more like you, but they don't always trust
 you and hesitate to become too deeply involved with you.
 
  FROM 51 TO 60 POINTS:
 Your friends see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive
 personality; a natural leader, quick to make decisions (though not
 always the right ones). They see you as bold and venturesome, someone
 who will try an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of
 the excitement you radiate.
 
  FROM 41 TO 50 POINTS:
 Others see you as fresh, lively, charming, amusing, practical, and
 always interesting; someone who is instantly the center of attention,
 but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to your head. They see
 you also as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who will
 cheer them up and help them out.
 
  FROM 31 TO 40 POINTS:
 Other people see you as sensible, cautious, careful, and practical.
 They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person
 who makes friends too quickly or too easily, but someone who is
 extremely loyal to the friends you do make and who expects the same
 loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize that 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 broken.
 
  FROM 21 TO 30 POINTS:
 Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very,
 very cautious and 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. They expect you to examine everything
 carefully from every side and then, usually decide against it. They
 think this reaction on your part is caused partly by your careful
 nature and partly by laziness.
 
  UNDER 21 POINTS:
 People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive, someone who needs
 to be looked after, who always wants someone else to make the
 decisions and who doesn't want to get involved with anyone or
 anything. They see you as a worrier, who sees problems that don't
 exist. Some people think you're boring. Only the people who know you
 well know that you aren't.
