Take the ARSE Quiz
Bob Sutton, Stanford professor and author of The No Asshole Rule, just e-mailed me about his Asshole Rating Self-Exam (ARSE). Bob also wrote this on his blog post titled Are You An ARSE? Take the Test!:
I worked with Guy Kawasaki and the folks from Electric Pulp to develop the Asshole Rating Self Exam, or ARSE test, based on the The No Asshole Rule: Building a Civilized Workplace and Surviving One That Isn’t.
I took the 24-question quiz, scored a “4,” and wiped my brow at the end:
0 to 5 “True”: You don’t sound like a certified asshole, unless you are fooling yourself.
I have The No Asshole Rule on order at Amazon. It’s the top pre-order out there in business, and is going to be a huge hit. For extra fun, look at this post. As soon as I get the book I’ll write more about it. In the interim, you can check out what Guy had to say, with a dang good explanation why the book is named what it’s named and some euphemism wasn’t used.

I really like how the scoring is so transparent. Many quizzes do some sort of 'black magic' to determine your score, but because this is a straight count, you can
a) grudgingly admit that you should have answered differently and figure out what you should have gotten
b) easily consider the ARBE or ARPE (boss exam or peer exam)
