Mine was 14. It seems like most people seem to miss out on what love is. But the interesting thing about this link is, it teaches you with pointing arrows as to what you should be looking for instead of just trying to figure it out by yourself.

I received a 13. The muscle charting was interesting, but I don't think there's a lot of real world value--unless people oblige to hold their current expression for the next three minutes or longer...

I got 15/20 but I found this were very over enthusiastic facial expressions, therefore easier to identify. In every day life, they are not like this. Nobody scrunches their face like they're sucking a lemon when they're in pain.

I scored a 16, which they said was above average. But looking at still pictures of facial expressions, where I have time to notice things like the angry person who isn't disgusted because he isn't scrunching up his nose and upper lip, is not the same as real life when they come and go in seconds during places and situations with a lot of distraction. Also the expressions were exaggerated, like in a cartoon or a movie. Some people in real life look like they've just been injected with botox because they show hardly any expression at all (in Hollywood movies that sometimes is the actual case!)

Pretty sure no. 11 was "I really need to spit out this awful-tasting liquid".

I scored 13, and real facial expressions do not look like those. Those look like obvious and bad acting.

I got 11 out of 20. I think the concept of emotional intelligence, in this particular case, is flawed. Emotional maturity is more than just about reading facial expressions.

16 but i felt uneasy having to look at people that intensely, even if it is just pictures on the internet.

I got a 9/20, but most were just random guesses except for the really obvious ones
