Dr. Phil test

I got this by email today, thought I would share it.

I am right there with Oprah .
*************************************************


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 subject box. Please do the same before forwarding to your friends.
(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 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.
Make sure to change the subject of the e-mail

to read YOUR total. When you are finished, forward this to everyone you
know, and also send it to the person who sent
this to you. Make sure to put YOUR score in the subject box. Ready??

10. (a) 4 (b) 2 (c) 3 (d) 5 (e) 6 (f) 1
>
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 who is 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 it 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.

Re: Dr. Phil test

44, but like Ann I think I fit the one below more, or a bit of a combo of the two.
A couple of the questions had 2 answers.
