Your result for The Nerd? Geek? or Dork? Test...
Modern, Cool Nerd
65 % Nerd, 74% Geek, 43% Dork
For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.
Nerds didn't use to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!
Congratulations!

Very flattering, these results. I'd love to be a modern, cool nerd. But I'm pretty sure I'm not. I'm not only a college drop out, but a high school drop out as well. I work an unskilled, low-paying job, and if I HAD nerdy friends to, oh, I dunno, maybe RP with or play D&D... but I don't, so, for fun, I GO TO BARS. Not very modern, cool, or nerdy, am I? Lol.
