    Oh yeah:

    21% scored higher (more nerdy),
    1% scored the same, and
    78% 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.

    That test is wrong..

    1% scored higher (more nerdy),
    0% scored the same, and
    99% scored lower (less nerdy).

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    All hail the monstrous nerd. You are by far the SUPREME NERD GOD!!!

    I think it's biased to classify scientists who have to program as nerds regardless..

    The chart puts me much more in geek territory - MUDs all the way - never want to even touch everquest thankyou!

    That's pretty much the way I see it. To clarify, in my opinion:

    A geek is someone that is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about a certain topic (usually technology or sci-fi based) but has other interests and social skills, whereas a nerd is also someone that is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about a certain topic (usually technology or sci-fi based), but goes on and on and on about it to people that don't care.

    I'm a geek - I know my stuff, but I won't go on about it unless people ask me too.

    What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

    Somewhat nerdy. I mean face it, you are nerdier than about half the test takers.
    Well I was pleasantly surprised!
