I took the test, and the results were completely meaningless. It said that I have a moderate or below average interest in science or engineering. This is patently wrong. This is a deep, abiding, long-term love-affair. It's why I've got a PhD in programming language theory, and have done all the course work, but not the dissertation for PhD's in Economics, Computational Biology, Statistics, Epidemiology, and Mathematics. So... yeah. Complete & utter baloney.
- throw4847285 10mo agoWhat Big Five test rated you on your interest in science? It only rates 5 factors by definition.
- thechao 10mo agoRight? It was a weird test. It started with OCEAN — which got a completely different result than the real OCEAN tests I've done — and then moved to a weird interest/aptitude test. It's clearly some BS marketing thing.
- machomaster 9mo agoSo you completed some BS online test, realized it, but still use its results to criticize the properly administered tests. This is weird. Just make a credible test (e.g. Jordan Peterson hosts one) and only after that draw conclusions.
