Heh, I'm sure my score was less because I never finished university, much less an advanced degree, and the last maths I did was in the 6th Form (2nd-to-last year of school), and I never studied calculus.
heh. I got 97. And I've come to you for help. I think the test needs work. ;<) I've seen some of these questions before - maybe it went around a few months ago.
The test has a limited imagination of what one might do with a computer on Friday nights.
Regarding of one might do with computers on Friday nights, it is a bit limited! Heh.
Also, I thought of the other thing, I'm not stereotypically "fannish" - don't ask me what Klingon ears are! - so I'm sure I lost big marks because of that.
I doubt you lost much on the Klingon - I'm not fannish either and answered "her smile" or something like that. I noticed he had a nerd/geek discussion at the end. I didn't read it, but in my lexicon fannish knowledge counts more towards geekiness and caring enough to make that distinction counts towards nerdiness. :<) Plus - and they didn't even ask - I have a pocket protector. With a picture of Bob Frankston on it.
The odd thing is, I think of you as more of a nerd than me[1]. But it's nice to know I can still hide behind the screen pretend to be a nerd. On the internet nobody knows you're an MBA, I guess.
Us Windows admins are the lowest of the low (even when we've managed to squish in a bit of Linux). And frankly, other than a few 30-line Perl scripts, I wouldn't know a programming/scripting language if it bit me on the arse. :-)
It's more in the attitude and the way you write about the things you do. This test seems place an awful lot of importance on being able to recognize Maxwell in a picture and such.

[1] and that's meant as a compliment, you know
