I only got 11, and am thus not nerdy at all, according to the folk who compiled that test.

It seemed very heavily weighted towards sciences though - had there been any questions about music, films or books I think I would have scored a lot higher.

There were no questions about reading technical manuals. I gave up - got bored.
Got the elements, historical figures and c = speed of light questions right - but the calculator one is where I left - my mac gives me any calculator type I need.
And friday nights are watching movies at home with my wife. so maybe not enough of a nerd.

51, lightly nerdy

I wouldn't consider myself so much as a nerd due to knowledge. Being nerdy is also about personality.I don't look, dress, or talk like a nerd.

One question didn't make sense to me..

Quote:

Which of the following is not a real programming language?
BASIC
C++
PASCAL
Assembly
FORTRAN
COBOL

In this instance, what would be defined as a "real" programming language? I didn't have to look them up on wikipedia, I recognized every language here as a "real" programming language. Unless I missed something, that question has no right answer.

This test didn't take into account much though... It only really looked at surface level stuff. It could have least asked me what the difference was between a while and a do-while loop.. Jeez!

Hmm I picked BASIC as people often used to refer to it derisively as 'not a real language' i.e. using the word real to mean poor.
Assembler I would think of as a language, in that is converts (although very simple) to machine code.
But then you scored a bigger nerd than me so your probably right!
