Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test ...

Outcast Genius

70 % Nerd, 57% Geek, 70% Dork

For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.

You scored better than half in all three, earning you the title of: Outcast Genius.

Outcast geniuses usually are bright enough to understand what society wants of them, and they just don't care! They are highly intelligent and passionate about the things they know are *truly* important in the world. Typically, this does not include sports, cars or make-up, but it can on occassion (and if it does then they know more than all of their friends combined in that subject).

Outcast geniuses can be very lonely, due to their being outcast from most normal groups and too smart for the room among many other types of dorks and geeks, but they can also be the types to eventually rule the world, ala Bill Gates, the prototypical Outcast Genius.

Congratulations!

Tip o' the hat to Daniel Taylor.

(I wouldn't advise taking this quiz; they ask you a whole bunch of nosy questions and for personal information. I faked everything.)

You Are Andale Mono

You are a geek, pure and simple. You spend a lot of time online. In fact, you probably love the internet more than anyone you know. You are picky about design, mostly for readability's sake. You are the type most likely to be irritated by a bad font.

I mean, this is true, especially about being irritated by bad fonts (or large colored fonts within magazine and book text as if I am a baby and need to have all pertinent points emphasized for my understanding).

But did it have to be a sans serif font? I hate sans serif fonts...

Your Birthdate: December 11

Spiritual and thoughtful, you tend to take a step back from the world. You're very sensitive to what's going on around you, yet you remain calm. Although you are brilliant, it may take you a while to find your niche. Your creativity is supreme, but it sometimes makes it hard for you to get things done. Your strength: Your inner peace Your weakness: You get stuck in the clouds Your power color: Emerald Your power symbol: Leaf Your power month: November

Well, I suppose...although I've never been a green person. I prefer sky blue or crimson. But I like the autumn motif!

Tip o'the hat to Vampry.

You scored as Cultural Creative. Cultural Creatives are probably the newest group to enter this realm. You are a modern thinker who tends to shy away from organized religion but still feels as if there is something greater than ourselves. You are very spiritual, even if you are not religious. Life has a meaning outside of the rational.

The math problem was dead easy once you figured out the distraction. (Of course I got straight A's in geometry; it was algebra that was the problem. LOL.)
