Numbers are just guidelines to amazing art, everyone knows that.

4. You have some strange talents, like tying seemingly unrelated things together.

Which makes you a star English student, at least.

5. You love to read and write, but you don’t know the difference between a preposition and a conjunction.

A timed test with limited answers? No thanks. You’d rather have a few hours to say exactly what you mean and defend your reasoning.

12. You appreciate a well-crafted sentence more than anyone, but you also think as you talk and don’t always edit.

Ordinary conversation = yawnsville.

17. Fictional characters have shaped your personality more than real people.

Duh.

18. You’ve questioned the whole notion of morality and think it’s more important to be kind than to be right.
