Now, tally up how many letters you have and which ever you have more of is your score!

If you got Mostly A’s, you’re innermost stereotype is a PREP;
A person who’s lifestyle is of understated elegance, generally good mannered and strives to achieve academic success. A true prep buys top-of-the-notch clothing such as Burberry, Lacoste, Ralph Lauren, Gucci, Prada  (any well made clothing that doesn’t go out of fashion quickly). A prep strives to stay fit and tries to get along well with others, while also has an expensive taste. You’ll often find a prep driving an expensive car, such as; a BMW or Mercedes.

If you got MOSTLY B’s, you’re a HIPSTER; 

Hipsters are a subculture of men and women that value independent thinking, counter-culture, progressive politics, appreciation of art, creativity, intelligence and wittiness. Hipsters are often unique and long to be different by rejecting mainstream fashions. They wear styles such as; vintage tshirts, thick rimmed glasses and tight fitting jeans. Hipsters are kind, analytical thinkers who challenge authority. They don’t like to be wrong but enjoy hearing other opinions. You’ll often find a hipster with an expensive camera, taking artsy shots of their surroundings. 

If you got MOSTLY C’s, you’re a TOM BOY;

Tom-boys are easy to spot out in a crowd of females. They are often the loud girls who are shotgunning with a group of guys or just “broing out”. Tom Boy’s don’t care too much about their appearance and rep the natural look, as she doesn’t try to attract any fellas. Tom boy’s are stubborn but extremely genuine and befriend anyone-even a stranger. You’ll often find a tom boy kicking a ball around with a group of guys-or simply hangin’ out in her baggy pants.

If you got MOSTLY D’s, you’re a NERD;

Nerds are the quieter gals who tend to find friends who are quite the opposite. Nerds are hardworking and smart. They aren’t afraid to be themselves and strive for perfection. Nerds are often mistaken for geeks which are gamers-nerds are NOT geeks. Though they might own an XBox, PS3, Gamecube and lots of board games- they are not geeks. You’ll often find a nerd wearing a blazer, and their hair up. Like tomboys, they don’t wear much makeup, as education is their primary focus.
