Dating Eligibility Test

Just been listening to this on the radio. It's a 10 category test in which you "find out" your perceived dating eligibility value. You're then meant to rate people you fancy/possible dates and if their score is +/- 2 from yours then it's more likely to work out.
Hope that makes sense!
Thought it would be fun to try it here
.
Here's the 10 categories, mark yourself out of
10 and then give us your final score
Perceived attractiveness (how attractive others think you are)
Perceived wealth (how wealthy others think you are)
Perceived personality/how fun you are/social engagement (how fun others think you are)
Perceived social desirability (whether you're someone that people always want to invite to their gatherings/parties/etc).
Perceived style (how stylish other people think you are)
IQ
Emotional intelligence (how in control of emotions you are/how emotionally self aware you are)
Perceived kindness/generosity
How rebellious you are (unconventionality)
Perceived social liability (baggage)
N.B. The last category should be a case of the lower the better, thus lowering your final score. So if you have low baggage give yourself a higher score, and if you have lots of baggage then give yourself a lower score for that category.
10 is the lowest possible total, 100 is the highest. I scored
65.

Umm... That test doesn't make tooo much sense, you know?
How should I possibly know how others perceive me
As a safe default value, I guess I average ten.

Mmm interesting idea. Like you I would like to think I scored in the 60s ...
Perhaps it would be more fun to score each other?

And it'd make more sense too I guess! Hard to score yourself, I think most would either over- or underestimate themselves.

OK, bearing in mind that I've never met any of my illustrious peers in the real world, I'll venture a 90 for Sinsister as I have seen a photo of her, she is undoubtedly a genius and most importantly she is our Hostess with the Mostest ...

I was going to put forth a
zero for myself on all counts, actually.
Then again, I'm not really interested in how others perceive me, as I consider their opinions to be generally irrelevant.
By the way, flattery will get you nowhere, sir.
