Your reaction was superb! If it’s any consolation, the questions can be interpreted in numerous ways and retaking it gives a multitude of outcomes. For instance, it asks you to choose a hobby- now is that a hobby you wish you were proficient in, or did the most, or are trying to improve. The movie question is arbitrary because it assumes one watches movies or chick flicks or even English language movies. And the holiday one: is it asking where you’ve been or want to go? And not many options plus it doesn’t specify if you are staying in a resort or in the local area or the tourist trap area or the suburbs. Anyway, I hope you recovered from your cold (I’m new, only discovered you yesterday). And it’s funny it doesn’t give any male characters or middles aged ones! It’s like it (rightly presumes) the quiz takers are young, single, females.

I got Elizabeth Bennet with my "first" choices, but I'm more like Catherine Mooreland which were my second choices. I love to read and observe people like Lizzy, but I'm not very self-confident or witty. I do have a wild imagination and love to dream, so I am more like Catherine. I also must say that I've always felt like Elenore Dashwood because I feel like I've had to be practical and take care of everyone around me.

Oh no! I laughed so hard, though. For what it's worth, I don't think you're anything like Fanny Price. The quiz might be confused. I was taking the quiz along with you and got Catherine Morland, which I'm hoping is good. She's not one I recognize.

I did the quiz along with you, and I got Catherine Morland! "You got: Catherine Morland You are smart, imaginative, and very enthusiastic about life and all its possibilities - you love to dream up fantastic scenarios and play them out in your head. But sometimes you forget that real life is much different than a story, and your head can get lost in the clouds." My answers were: Passionate, Music, Netflix, London, A Cinderella Story, and Honesty.

I'm sure the quiz isn't 100% accurate (+/- 5%) or completely based on Science, as I am Jane Bennet & as you know she is far too nice for me. She'd probably like Fanny (or at least make some mollifying comments regarding her). Great video! You're really putting the fun in Jane Austen July.

Well I got Jane Bennet. Not sure how I feel about it, for she was a bit too quiet. Bingley would never be my taste in a man--too cute. I like the ruggedly handsome guy, who wears Timberland boots (LOL), Then I retook the quiz because one of the questions I am given to two thoughts, so when I re-answered the question where I wrestle with the two possible choices, it came up Elizabeth Bennet. I like a man who is both kind and believes in equality. (and wears Timberland boots).
