<p>Basically, I'm Nelson Mandela. Awesome.</p>
<p>I took it again and got this:
Economic Left/Right: 5.38
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 1.69</p>
<p>around Tony Blair, which is much closer to me</p>
<p>but I have decided that this test is ridiculously biased
I took it and answered all "strongly disagree/agree" and made it the most rightwing, extremist answers I possibly could...and I got Economic Left/Right: 8.66
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 5.43</p>
<p>which was right around G.W. Bush, which, I'm sorry, can't be him. biased-ness on the part of political compass.</p>
<p>and then i answered all extremist left and I got </p>
<p>Economic Left/Right: -8.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -8.62</p>
<p>which was way farther down than the rightwing version was upward...so the test is skewed to give you a more liberal answer</p>
<p>I'm sure its soomehow based on the answers. Maybe some of them require an agree rather than a strongly agree to be most extreme? I don't know...</p>
<p>I tried to get the most conservative answers and got 8.88, and 7.74. Its even more conservative than your "most conservative" attempt, so I guess it just depends on how you answer the questions. We could just be thinking that some questions are conservative when you're actually liberal...?</p>
<p>haha, i've been accused so often of being a liberal in disguise as a conservative</p>
<p>but I'm really not
just culturally I'm very involved, so everything relating to the arts I answer liberally, and it comes out skewed</p>
<p>I guess so far I'm still the most conservative? I guess I'll really enjoy Gtown then :)!</p>
<p>Your political compass
Economic Left/Right: -8.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.77</p>
<p>Turns out that I am quite the communist/anarchist. Much more Kropotkin than Stalin. Less fascist, more anarchist. A little more extreme than Gandhi, interesting.</p>
<p>alukaszeicz, is gtown really supposed to be more conservative? i sort of got that impression from when i visited and i've heard that said before, but what makes you draw that conclusion?</p>
<p>As someone who lives about 30 minutes from Georgetown and is super familiar with the DC area, I can't believe that Georgetown would be a conservative campus. The DC area is far too liberal for that. I'd definetely say if the campus is leaning towards anything it's liberal. Thank goodness for that.</p>
<p>Well, since its Jesuit, its more conservative than the typical college. That being said, its not really conservative, its probably more centrist (leaning towards conservative).</p>
<p>Anyone else want to do the test???</p>
<p>Economic Left/Right: -5.00
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.79
I never realize how liberal I am until I take things like this or get in arguments with right-wing people.</p>
<p>i thought i was pretty conservative and i turned out with
economic 5.25
social 4.72
pretty accurate i suppose (i found some of the questions a bit amgibuous)</p>
