87% scored higher (more nerdy), and
13% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Not nerdy, but then again maybe not all that cool either.

Yeah, that sounds like it describes me fairly well. Of course, I haven't had enough chances to learn most of that stuff, so my score will go up/down (depends on how you look at it) in the future. Oh, and I was forced to guess at some of them.

I'm the kid sitting in the back of the classroom, bored out of his mind because I already know this stuff or don't care to learn it. I only vonlunteer information when it is tortured out of me by pulling my toenails out and cutting my tongue. My teachers learned this the hard way and keep a pair of pliers and an exacto knife in their desk. I can usually explain the subject material to the people who don't get it better than the teachers can. This happened just the other day in science, on the topic of black holes.

Teacher: Black holes are blah blah blah.......
Student#1: Huh?
Teacher: What don't you get?
Student#1: Um... I get it. *Quietly* No I don't...
Me: *Whispering* You know how as you go deeper in the water, the water pressure increases? That's why scuba divers don't go real deep. And how, if you go to the bottom of an ocean, the water presure is so strong that it will crush you?
Student#1: Yeh, I guess.
Me: It's like that, only a lot stronger.
Student#1: Teacher, I get it now! ______ just told me a cool story about black holes!
Teacher: Huh? Oh, I thought you said you got that. Well, _______ tell us your explanation.
Me: *sighs, makes a mental note never to help anyone ever again, reexplains story*



Because I don't volunteer information, people see me as just barely cool enough to hang out with if they are bored, and perfect for copying homework off of, because nobody will get too suspicious if they are seen near me, and I'm smart enough to help, will almost always help, (see how nice I am?) and can explain easily. Some people who came to me for "help" on the homework (wanted to copy my answers) come away with a better understanding than they would have had if they didn't get my help. Smartness (intelligence) and nerdiness are not the same, not always. Nerdiness is more like knowing esoteric knowledge that is often technical in nature, beyond the comprehension of most people, and/or not useful/interesting for most people. Intelligence is how much you know/can know. Nerdiness is what you know. It's an unfair distinction.
