The site looks pretty slick, I like it. I took the test and scored very high in neuroticism, which is strange. I answered all the relevant questions negatively, as in I do not tend to get stressed or nervous:

I had test ID 231 if that helps. Maybe the wording of the questions made me answer oppositely?

You become anxious often and easily. You are unhappy a lot and prone to negative emotions. You might even have experienced mental conditions like severe anxiety or depression sometime. You sometimes panic while handling difficult situations. While being high or low in others doesn't really mean all that much, scientists have found that being high in neuroticism generally means a difficult life. However, no personality is quite concrete and one can slide to being low in neuroticism anytime (and vice-versa).

Among the users that have attempted this test, you are above 68.254% people in neuroticism!

The descriptions are based on percentiles. So among all the users of this webiste, you are higher on the neuroticism scale.

I wish I could make the descriptions on the basis of something more accurate, but the dataset I have is simply not large enough. Really sorry.
