    Scored 60, not bad. After all took 2 years of computer science in college before I figured out that programming (I was good at it) SUCKED as a career choice. Like sawdust a lot better.

      24% scored higher (more nerdy),
      1% scored the same, and
      75% scored lower (less nerdy).

      What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

      Mid-Level Nerd. Wow, it takes a lot of hard nerdy practice to reach this level.


      I must be easing up as I get older, I guess I'm finally getting more 'balance' in my life. Not much, but some...

            I got:
            18% scored higher (more nerdy),
            1% scored the same, and
            81% scored lower (less nerdy).

            What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

            High-Level Nerd. You are definitely MIT material, apply now!!!.

            Of course, I applied to MIT, but they didn't want me.

              96% scored higher (more nerdy),
              1% scored the same, and
              3% scored lower (less nerdy).

              What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

              Definitely not nerdy, you are probably cool.

                      41 lightly Nerdy. I was more Nerdy before I retired. Now I am a Poppa and gather splinters in my hands.

                            For your nerdy work,
                            here is the promised image:


                            Not nerdy, but then again maybe not all that cool either.


                            Dunno if I should be disappointed or proud! Define "nerd"...

                              45.....much cooler than I expected!!

                              Just goes to show that there really is hope for recovering engineers (at least structural ones).

                              Just get really bored with design, chuck it all, get a pair of good work boots & a hardhat, start at the bottom in construction and work your way back to the top from there. Reality is the best catharsis.

                                I suspect this is graded on a very steep curve! Seemed like about half of my answers should have been nerdless. Reminds me of my chemistry final in college, in which the average grade was 28%, and getting half of the answers right guaranteed an A.
