To give you an idea of the kind of results you end up with, here's mine from about 12 months ago: |
I liked the idea. I just did it and these are my scores

- Gregariousness: 48 % average
- Assertiveness: 15% LOW
- Activity Level: 41 % average
- Excitement Seeking: 99% high

I am much better than you Marc. No contest.
AGREEABLENESS: 0% I like that
- Trust: 39% double than yours
- Morality: 1% there, you would like my score
- Altruism: 77% an other one
- Cooperation: 0% i am proud of this
- Modesty: 0% again
there is also sympathy I score 4 (ah ah)

- Self-Efficacy: 75% HIGH I get 74
- Orderliness: 45% AVERAGE
- Dutifulness: 63% AVERAGE

We can get along. Actually I like you quite a lot, although we are both already taken. who cares, we are at the antipodes. Do you like my joint scores on morality and excitement seeking? I like your immoderation.
