Are you impulsive?

The description sounds about right. I'm surprised I scored as much as 24% though.

You Are 24% Impulsive

You're a pretty stable and serious person. You don't take things lightly. This doesn't mean you can't have fun - you just have fun responsibly. You definitely have a spontaneous side, but you only let loose when it's appropriate.

How healthy a diet?

Fairly obvious which questions were going to give the best score, but I answered honestly, and think the result is about right:

You Are 76% Healthy

Your diet is quite healthy, but you don't too crazy with what you eat. You know how to eat what's good for you, but you're also careful not to deprive yourself.

How Healthy Is Your Diet?

How Nerdy?

Thanks to Deb for this.

Well I didn't think I was really nerdy, but having several experts in the family I suppose some of it's rubbed off on me. I do use Firefox as my browser, yes I always liked maths (and read it at university), and yes, I know a lot of the periodic table. But that's only because chemistry bored me so much at school that I decided the quickest way to pass exams was simply to learn the periodic table by rote. It worked, too.

The amazing thing is that even with all that, I'm only considered 22% nerdy. Apparently 78% of people are even more so....

Overall, you scored as follows:

78% scored higher (more nerdy), and
22% scored lower (less nerdy).

What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:

Not nerdy, but definitely not hip.

Right-brained or left-brained?

For a few of these questions I wanted to answer 'both' (or 'neither') but on the whole they were reasonable. I think the result is probably pretty accurate too.

You Are 60% Left Brained, 40% Right Brained

The left side of your brain controls verbal ability, attention to detail, and reasoning. Left brained people are good at communication and persuading others. If you're left brained, you are likely good at math and logic. Your left brain prefers dogs, reading, and quiet. The right side of your brain is all about creativity and flexibility. Daring and intuitive, right brained people see the world in their unique way. If you're right brained, you likely have a talent for creative writing and art. Your right brain prefers day dreaming, philosophy, and sports.

Are You Right or Left Brained?

What mythological creature?

Um... the description's not bad. I think of centaurs as rather stronger and more warlike than I am, but for what it's worth:

You Are a Centaur

In general, you are a very cautious and reserved person. However, you are also warm hearted, and you enjoy helping others in practical ways. You are a great teacher, and you are really good at helping people get their lives in order. You are very intuitive, and you go with your gut. You make good decisions easily.
