Well Dody,this is certainly interesting....

Whoever owns that website should make an ammendment in the Race/Ethnicity column of the data collection.Black & White are neither race nor ethnicity definitions.

This test is also about US-Centric..designed for US respondents based on some of the questions.

Oh and apparently I'm 80% adult..whatever that means:)

The authors of the test oppossed to the idea of adolescence and theorized that teenagers should be treated like adults.

I agree with Pilli that it is designed for US respondents. Interesting, I scored 89% citizenship :)))

Very US centric indeed ... I also got 67% in the love department, which I don't agree with :) An overall 87% is probably flattering, but those questions, I don't know....and why do they ask certain questions over and over again?

I agree with every one who said its US centric, the funny thing is I got a 100% in the Citizenship on the other hand i got a 67% in the Education section.
As for the repeated questions i think they're trying to make something up or not.

Test aside, the definitions for each of the skills areas leaves a little to be desired.

Take leadership as an example "adults are supposed to know about leaders and, to some extent, to be able to act as leaders: as leaders of other adults, of children, or at least of pets."

Leaderhsip of pets? Is anyone else out there buying this?

Or this cracker (also from the leadership section) "adults are also supposed to be somewhat brave: at least in defending their loved ones or in killing harmless insects"

Killing harmless insects? If this is 'leadership' I wonder why more people don't sign up to office in the States.
