46, having just retaken it.

I've taken it a few times during my whole journey of self-discovery and I don't think I've ever scored below 40 on it.

Remember that it is never too late to accept God's love into your heart and to believe the truth that Jesus Christ died for your sins, was buried, and rose from the dead after three days. Christ's sacrifice was unconditional and it is never too late to invite Him into your heart as your personal Savior!

34 for me. Some questions were a bit difficult because I say to myself "...but not all the time" but I guess often enough to drive my wife nuts from time to time.

48 or 49/50, even in my assessment.

I wish I knew which ones I was getting "wrong".

I've changed my answers around a lot but I always get 48 or 49.

If you mean what I think you mean, this PDF may be useful to you. It shows how each question is scored:

33.

My EQ is 13 (tested several times). This, combined with the fact that I have lost everything, been to hell and back, and picked myself up and got on with it, is probably why I don't have a lot of sympathy for the Woe is Me crowd.

Oh wow! Cool thanks!

I’ll try it again!

Note how the scoring ignores the difference between answering "definitely" and "slightly." I don't know why they don't factor that in, as it seems important. But they don't. So why do they ask for that granularity if they aren't genuinely interested?

I haven't done it yet, or looked at it.
I'm a bit braindead having ventured out into the real world for a couple of hours.
I'm curious to see how it works though, and you raise a good point!
