And post your percentage score that's listed at the end (score is the percentage of americans that drink less than you)
I don't know what sense to make of mine, so I need some "typical" drinkers as a benchmark. |

Based on your Responses:
It is likely that your current drinking patterns are hazardous or harmful to your health and well being. Your responses to the AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) are in a range believed to be consistent with problems related to drinking. However, the AUDIT cannot diagnose any condition or tell you for certain if alcohol use is harming your health; rather, it is a screening test to determine the likelihood of problematic drinking, and thus whether you should seek further evaluation.
Many people are not aware of how their alcohol consumption compares to that of the general public. More than 95% of the general adult American population and 91% of men consume fewer drinks per week than you reported consuming.
Recommended Action:
Because your results indicate that your drinking patterns may be hazardous or harmful, consider seeking further evaluation from your doctor or other qualified health professional, who can help you determine if your alcohol consumption is adversely affecting your health or interfering with your work and relationships. You may also want to learn more about health problems related to drinking and ways to reduce your risk. The links below will assist you in locating a local health professional for further assistance, and in making well informed health decisions about alcohol. |

Mine is 96.5, but I was being conservative with some of my answers.
*high-five Andy* we are drinking valedictorians! 96%+ = A/4.0

Your results do not suggest that a pattern of excess drinking is harming your health. However, the amount you reported consuming on at least one occasion may increase your risk for injury or other immediate consequences. This risk is associated with having more than 3 drinks per occasion if you are a woman or someone over 65, or 4 drinks per occasion if you are a man age 65 or younger.
Recommended Action:
Consider setting a safer personal limit for how much alcohol you consume on one occasion. For some people and in certain situations, no amount of alcohol is safe. Follow the link below to learn more about wise consumption limits, when it's not safe to drink at all, and the kinds of problems that excess alcohol can cause. This information will help you make informed health decisions about alcohol. |

That was the one that ruined the whole test for me, because I had a high # on this one, which made it tough to pinpoint how many drinks I have in a night in question #5.
Also with question #7: | quote: | | How often during the last year have you failed to do what was normally expected from you because of drinking? |
If your reputation is being a drunk, you're actually doing what's normally expected.
For Rubin & me there should have been "how many times do you come home drunk from the bar & post on TA?"
CHEERS!
