Scoring Scale:

00-14 points ==>  Go back to your English class.
15-24 points ==>  Either you have a life or you are an underclassperson.
25-34 points ==>  You can feel your life slipping through your 
                  fingers as you get sucked into the world of Electrical 
                  Engineering.  It could be worse...you could be in CS.
35-44 points ==>  You should definitely go to grad school in EE.
45-72 points ==>  You are a lost cause.  You're the EE equivalent of 
                  Carl Sagan.  Please do not contact me...ever.
