I got a 2.1/6, which is less than 50%. Apparently this is a "high" risk of burnout... Why not replace it with a button that says "Do you work in tech?" Yes -> High Risk of Burnout, since that's the vibe they're going with.

I got 0.6 / 6, and it said the same. Is it possible to not be at high risk of burnout according to this survey?

  I got a ‘mid risk’ at 1.3. All of my ratings were low except ‘exhaustion’ which was a mid.

    As a test, I answered 0 for most choices. 1 for like two or so. Result: .6 of 6, "high" burnout risk.

  This thing is trash. I put "never" on everything and then "a few times a year" on one and I was still "mid" risk at 0.3/6. Putting "once a month or less" on one thing made it "high" at 0.5/6 So basically 0.0 = LOW, 0.1 - 0.3 = MID, 0.3 - 6.0 = HIGH Basically everyone who isn't in their dream job is at high risk of burnout. Pointless quiz.

  I was surprised when my 1/6 gave me high risk. I am very thankful for what I do and I enjoy going to work. If you answer "None" to everything, your burnout risk is low (0/6). Answering a single question with 1 (A few times a year or less) puts you at .1/6 (Mid), which goes up to .5/6. I find the results reporting of this to be rather sensationalist and the whole thing pretty useless. If you're burnt out, you probably don't need an online quiz to tell you.

    Think it depends on the category. I scored a ‘mid’ with a 1.3.

      I scored 'mid' with 2.1, which was rather surprising after reading the parents comments.

        I scored 3.4 and got mid. When I read the parents comments I thought that might have meant a lower score was higher risk. I suspect it depends on the categories you answer.

  Odd, I just popped 3 in everything to get 3/6 and it gave "mid" https://i.imgur.com/0YSLoyP.png https://i.imgur.com/0YSLoyP.png

And they have the balls to tell me that my cynicism level is high. I mean, they're not wrong, but gosh.

I got 2.3/6 and my burnout risk is "mid", so they probably weight some questions more than others when assessing the burnout risk.
