Detailed Score Explanations
A score of 98–100 means you have had virtually no experiences from the list. This is extremely rare beyond early teenage years and typically describes children or people with very sheltered upbringings. You may be very young, or you simply haven't been placed in situations that would change your score yet.
💡 Keep in mind:
There is nothing wrong with a high score. It simply reflects limited exposure to certain life experiences at this stage.
Scoring 90–97 indicates you are very innocent. You may have had some romantic experiences like holding hands or a first kiss, but have avoided most social, sexual, and substance-related experiences. This is a common score range for high school students and incoming college freshmen.
💡 Keep in mind:
This score is most common among 14–18 year olds. Don't worry — life experience comes naturally over time.
The 77–89 range suggests you've had meaningful life experiences but remain largely innocent. You've likely been in a relationship, attended social gatherings, and perhaps experimented lightly. This is one of the most common score ranges for first- and second-year college students.
💡 Keep in mind:
This range is normal for young adults. You've experienced enough to relate to peers without having crossed into riskier territory.
Scores of 45–76 represent the broad average for most college students and young adults. You've navigated romantic relationships, social scenes, and have likely experimented with alcohol or other substances. You've experienced a fairly typical slice of adult life.
💡 Keep in mind:
The vast majority of adults fall in this range. It means you've lived a relatively normal, experience-rich life.
A score of 9–44 indicates you have a very wide range of life experiences. You've crossed into territory that many people haven't, including multiple sexual partners, regular substance use, and possibly some legal or academic situations. This is common among older young adults in their mid-20s.
💡 Keep in mind:
This score isn't inherently bad — it reflects lived experience. It's worth reflecting on which experiences have been positive versus negative.
Scoring 0–8 means you've done almost everything on the list. This is very rare and suggests an extremely eventful life. Very few people score this low. If you scored here, you've almost certainly accumulated a wide range of experiences across romance, substances, legal encounters, and social situations.
💡 Keep in mind:
Reflect carefully on which of these experiences were positive choices and which may have been harmful. Remember: this test is for entertainment, not judgment.
