At the end of the quiz, you are given an exact score out of 40 and it tells you how you compare to everyone else. According to Psych Central, "Between 12 and 15 is average. Celebrities often score closer to 18. Narcissists score over 20." The test was made to help find out if people have narcissistic personality disorder and if they need treatment for it.

The website reads: "Narcissistic personality disorder involves a persistent pattern of thoughts and behaviors characterized by grandiosity, an overwhelming need for admiration, and a lack of empathy toward others and their needs or feelings. A person with disorder believes they are the centre of the universe and all attention should be paid to them.

Most people with this disorder don’t see their behaviour as being particularly problematic until it starts to negatively impact their life in meaningful ways (such as losing a job, a relationship, etc.). Narcissistic personality disorder can respond to different types of treatment, usually involving psychotherapy."
