You shouldn't be surprised, either.

Although I kept suffering an urge to check boxes that made pretty patterns on the page rather than actually related to my answers.

For the last one I was caused to think:

• Does a person get penalised on this set of questions if they have a realistic appraisal of their ability to assess others, i.e. someone who was overconfident might score higher, not because they were more empathic, but because they had never paid enough attention to see that they weren't.
  
• Does a person get penalised because they balence their intuition with reason, and would that be a fair penalisation: would weighing the intuition with reason imply the intuition was neccessarily poorer?
  

Intresting that your friends list seem to tend towards your extreme scores Michelle (unless of course their averages are way out, which is always possible).
