SCORE KEY: DebtSmart® Financial Compatibility Test
by
Scott Bilker |
Not all the questions have the same
score value. Therefore, the scores are weighted on each question
according to their importance. Some responses may take points away
from your score (negative scores).
Also, please be sure to take the
survey
and let us know how you liked this test!

Print
this Score Key web page. |
| 2) |
For
each question, circle the score associated with your true/false answer in
the column(s) marked YOU. For example, if you answered TRUE for question #3
you'd circle the score "2" in YOU column in the
"question #3" row. |
| 3) |
Circle the score associated with
your spouse/partner's true/false answer in the PARTNER column(s). For
example, if your spouse answered FALSE for question #2, you'd circle
the "0" under the PARTNER column(s) in the
"question #2" row. |
| 4) |
If you both answer TRUE for the
same question, then circle the "True" bonus score in the MATCH
column(s). For
example, if you both answered TRUE for question #5, you'd circle
"2" in the YOU and PARTNER columns AND "1" in
the MATCH-True column. |
| 5) |
If you both answer FALSE for the
same question, then circle the "False" bonus score in the MATCH
column(s). For
example, if you both answered FALSE for question #5, you'd circle
"0" in the YOU and PARTNER columns AND "0" in
the MATCH-False column. |
| 6) |
Total all the circled scores for
each question and put that in the TOTAL column. For example, if you
both answered TRUE for question #3, then you would circle the
"2" in the YOU column, the "2" in the PARTNER column, the
"2"
in the MATCH-True column, and write "6" in the TOTAL column. |
| 7) |
Add up all the
entries in the TOTAL column for each
question to get your total score for the test. |
