RE: How rational are you really? Take the test

Butt dumpling
You career haphazardly through life. Almost everything goes right over your head, or else in one ear and out the other. It's amazing you're still alive, actually. You give little or no thought to anything, including important life decisions. You place little value on learning, preferring to rely on improvising and using your poor sense of intuition. You won't have understood any of this and are probably eating yoghurt with your bare hands.

Well, here's what I learned from this test: if you take it a second time - you get a far more flattering score...
First time - I got 57.89% of the highest possible rationality score (better than 50% of past users) and was labelled a Skeptic - Reflective, Subjective, Carefree, Skeptical.
quantitative reasoning score: 55.56%
future-based reasoning score: 75%
evidence evaluation score: 50%
cognitive awareness score: 62.5%
Seems about right, considering I was high as a kite while taking the test. I mean - to the point, that I had to take a nap half-way through the damn thing...

That's probably true for most tests.

Yes, finally managed to get a low score one:
Free Spirit
Most Free Spirits like to seek out new experiences; they prefer to enjoy these experience on an emotional level without poring over or analyzing them. They tend to enjoy the more colorful and artistic parts of everyday life. Approximately 21% of the populace are Free Spirits.
You are Intuitive: You tend to trust your intuitions — you size up situations quickly and stick with your judgments once you’ve made them. This tendency can be useful when you need to think on your feet, or when you’re using a skill that you’ve already honed to perfection.
You are Subjective: People and stories interest you more than facts and figures do; you focus on the essence of ideas over the details. Your mind is more qualitative than quantitative. This trait lets you focus on the big picture over the nitty-gritty.
You are Carefree: You tend to live in the moment. You don’t waste a lot of emotional energy fretting about the future. Instead, you focus on getting the most out of life right now.
You are Open: You're not an aggressive skeptic or naysayer. You tend to consider information without immediately disputing it unless given clear reason to do so. Proving people wrong is not a high priority for you.
You racked up 21.05% of the highest possible rationality score!
I wonder what I can get at 0% rationality

I want this test to tell me I'm dumb to my face, but the internet here is too slow to handle it
So I'll just sit here and feel excluded ._.

It doesn't work that way. It asks you two questions about what you think your money's worth that ought to have the same answer regardless of what your time's worth. Otherwise you are valuing your time irrationally. The right answer is that they should match.

I took it a second time completely baked and scored almost ten points higher. How's that work?

Now you know what you should do before making any important decisions.
