Scoring
The maximum score is 50. Over 45 - This is a tough test and if you scored over 45 your vocabulary is absolutely excellent. You probably work with words professionally and solve crossword puzzles with an ease that infuriates your friends. You are too smart to be an English teacher. 35-44 - If you scored between 35 and 44 your score is still very good indeed. You have a vocabulary well outside the normal range. 25-34 - A score of 25-34 is extremely creditable and would indicate quite a good command of the language. 15-24 - A score of 15-24 would be about average. The test did contain quite a few common words which, though you might not use them every day, would be in the vocabulary of an educated person. Below 15 - Perhaps you should consider enrolling in CA?

The maximum score is 75. If you score 65 or above, you are a pretty tough nut. You don't trust other people, are prepared to lie and trick your way to get what you want, and have few scruples about the methods you employ. You will either be very successful or serve time in prison. Possibly both. Use this skill on your teenagers! 55-64 If you scored 55 to 64 Machiavelli would still have cause to be proud of you. He would admire your capacity for assessing others shrewdly and not being swayed by any silly sentimentality about people's motives. 45-54 If you scored 45 to 54 you are quite tricky enough to survive in a hard world, but do have some scruples and are not really as unscrupulous as you might think. 35-44 A score of 35 to 44 indicates that you're really something of a softie. You actually believe that others can have good motives and you are unwilling to use any means to get what you want. 30-34 A score of 30 to 34 suggests that you are a really nice person by will regularly get taken advantage of by people who do not share your sunny view of human nature. Below 30 If you scored below 30, you are probably not safe to go out alone.
