You are The Collaborator!

The Collaborator is one of the most beloved types of intellectuals. With an unquenchable thirst for knowledge, you spread your sights over a broad range of disciplines, eager to tap the knowledge of the brightest in their fields.

Acting as a sort of honey bee to these great minds, you synthesize an eclectic array of abilities. Your name may be second on a lot of books and papers, but you'll always be first in the hearts of your peers!

Paul Erdos is one of my heroes and arguably the most prolific mathematician in history. It's just cool to be compared to him.

You are The Bibliophile!

There's nothing you love more than the raw digestion of ideas. You spend your time collating the many works you've encountered into a grand enlightened whole.

Most of the things you observe in the real world become consistent and easy to explain--a hundred different factors all add up. But because you know so many facets of the issues, you can have a hard time explaining them to other people. You may find success in a practical discipline like politics or business, where the results speak for themselves!

Your result for The "What Type of Intellectual are You?" Test ...

The Scientist
You scored 49% empirical, 35% public, and 32% teaching-oriented



You are The Scientist!

Slavishly devoted to the principle of cause and effect, you never leave an assumption untested.

With the right resources, you can live in a paradise of experiments, happily isolated from the rest of the world.

Some "Scientist" types love the process, while others are driven by the results. The common feature is their vigorous independence. Your fellow scientists will be your only audience, and your harshest critics. But you'll get your accolades spiritually, every time someone says "I wonder how this works?" Your Analysis (Vertical line = Average)


You scored 49% on empiricism, higher than 58% of your peers.


You scored 35% on publicity, higher than 56% of your peers.


You scored 32% on pedagogy, higher than 25% of your peers.

Public Intellectual
You scored 31% empirical, 85% public, and 52% teaching-oriented

Noble, confident, successful! You are The Public Intellectual!

You have the enviable traits of the public intellectual. Unlike many great men and women, you are likely to be widely recognized for your contributions to popular discourse. People might admiringly drop your name in blogs on the internet or invite you to fancy cocktail parties.

However, you may find yourself fighting to maintain the integrity of your ideas. You're very likely to be mischaracterized, politicized, or satirized by scholars and laymen alike. And you may be tempted to stick to your guns, merely out of stubbornness. But when push comes to shove, you're exactly whom thousands of liberal arts major will strive to be some day.

You scored 7% empirical, 5% public, and 2% teaching-oriented

Dumb, ignorant, scum! You are not an intellectual!

You have no traits of an intellectual. Unlike many great men and women, you are likely to end up on a filthy pad. People might give you a coin once is a while, or if you are lucky, buy you a dinner. Your life will be a true test of character.

However, you may find yourself fighting to maintain at least some resemblance to human being. You're very likely to be mugged, shanked, or raped by scholars and laymen alike. And you may be tempted to stick to your guns, merely out of your delusion of self-worth. But when it comes down to the facts, no one would like to be like you.

Dumb, ignorant scum! You are not nearly pretentious enough for this test!

You scored 34% empirical, 11% public, and 52% teaching-oriented

The realm of ideas is your domain, and you relish any chance to act as guide for others. You strive for order in your mental and physical life, and you get it.

You probably write a lot and can master topics by teaching them to other people. Even if you aren't recognized in this lifetime, your writings will someday be accepted as essential.

You scored 60% empirical, 41% public, and 49% teaching-oriented

The quintessential genius of the public imagination, you are The Professor!

Dealing with the rigors of science in an accessible, exciting way, you stimulate the imagination of the world.

You are one of the busiest types of intellectuals. Never settled down, you stay up late reading, because you spend all day teaching! As you get older, people may say that your glory days are past, or that your output no longer shifts the tide. But your many students will always refer to you as an extraordinary (wo)man!

I may add I found the answers good, but the result tells me absolutlly nothing. It is a waste of time.
Maybe the test was conceived by a brilliant person, and the interpretation of the results by his donkey.

You don't need to register, just uncheck the "Still, save my result! (One more quick page - it'll be worth it)" :)
