You mean you just now found it? I've already taken that test at least 50 times probably, and I only get about 30%. But honestly, most of the stuff on that test seems to better describe a nerd than a geek.

I took it a couple of years ago and got a 38.

Took it several years ago and I didn't finish it. Didn't want to read that much.

45.01845%. Aced movies, lit, and science, but took a serious beating on any reference to band, gaming, collecting, and geek wear. Since I left the IT field, I actually had to start buying my own t-shirts. Most of mine don't have logos any more. RATS!

This is why I object to it being called a "geek test". Geeks are into sci-fi, gaming, and computers, mainly. Most of those things, e.g. literature, science, and academics, are more nerdy than geeky. There is a difference. Some of the questions had me shaking my head. Seriously, Weezer? Real geeks listen to nu metal and everyone knows that. Weezer is more dork than geek or nerd.

37.45

but I'm much less geeky than I used to be, back before I learned about autism.

I remember this test from a few years back, but I don't recall what I scored then.

54% and they didn't even give me credit for being in madrigal choir or attending music camp?! C'mon! The kids in my high school that were the coolest were in band and show choir! And there's a huge difference being being a gaming nerd and a band geek... they might be similar but they're not identical. I'd like to see the test broken up with Venn diagrams to indicate the origins of the various questions. Hmm... *starts typing*

I believe being in a band would qualify you as a dork if anything, seeing as there's no intelligence required.
