I saw this link in my gmail and had to click on it, but what made me post here was this
Like nerds, geeks are smart, but they tend to focus more on technology. As Urban Dictionary explains, these are the people you make fun of in high school and later work for as an adult.

Pure Nerd
69 % Nerd, 43% Geek, 39% Dork
For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in Nerd, earning you the title of: Pure Nerd.

The times, they are a-changing. It used to be that being exceptionally smart led to being unpopular, which would ultimately lead to picking up all of the traits and tendences associated with the "dork." No-longer. Being smart isn't as socially crippling as it once was, and even more so as you get older: eventually being a Pure Nerd will likely be replaced with the following label: Purely Successful.

Congratulations!

On another note, try this test....

When I did the test (which was a few months ago) I scored:

91 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 60% Dork

I'm an Outcast Genius, and have the potential to be another Bill Gates. (Muwahahahah)

I scored higher than 98% on nerdiness
I scored higher than 75% on geekosity
I scored higher than 96% on dork points
