Methodology

How the comparisons work

Sarahah compares your answers with everyone else who took the same quiz. This page covers when a comparison appears, how the score is worked out, and what the numbers do and do not tell you.

When a comparison appears

A comparison shows up once at least 50 people have answered. Global, country, age, and gender comparisons each have to reach 50 on their own. Waiting for a larger group also protects the people in it, because numbers drawn from a handful of responses can point back at individuals.

How your score is calculated

Each quiz is eight questions. Answer options are ordered, and each one is worth points based on its position, starting at zero. Your total is then measured against the highest score the quiz allows, so every quiz lands on the same scale.

Which answers count

Only completed, first-time submissions count. If the same person takes a quiz again, or a submission is rejected as spam or automated, it does not move the counts or change the published distributions.

What the results do not tell you

Everyone here chose to take the quiz, and no answers are weighted to match a real population. So the results describe the people who answered, not a country, an age group, a gender, or the public.
