Rice Purity Test score 66: Average Explorer

Thirty-one to forty-five items checked — the middle of the scale.

Thirty-one to forty-five situations applied. Roughly a third to just under half the list, which normally spans dating, drinking and part of the sexual block while leaving the drug and arrest questions empty.

66out of 100

What checking 34 boxes actually covers

Scoring 66 means 34 of the 100 questions were answered yes. The list escalates as it goes, so a 66 usually covers all of online & modern life, with romance & dating, parties & nightlife and sexual experience partly checked.

Where 34 checks reach on the classic list

  • 32.Watched pornography?
  • 33.Bought a sex toy?
  • 34.Used a sex toy with a partner?

35.Been dry humped or dry humped someone? — the first item a 66 leaves unchecked.

Question order is fixed, so this is where the count lands, not a guess about you. Two people on 66 can have checked entirely different items.

A 66 sits 16 points above the halfway mark of the scale, so more of the questionnaire is still unchecked than checked. Nothing in the wording of the test treats one direction as better; the number only reports which of a fixed list of situations you have been in.

One point either way
