These quizzes were revealing. I scored a 7/18 on the poverty quiz. This made me understand that I may know some tips and resources that would help me if I was in poverty but I do not know what it is really like to live in it. I would not be able to successfully survive if I was in poverty. I scored a 1/14 on the wealth quiz. I am obviously by no means, wealthy. I was not aware of the many hidden rules or ways of living when you are wealthy. I would not know how to properly survive or behave in this area. I scored a 10/14 on the middle class quiz which is where I obviously belong. I have been middle class my whole life and know the aspects that come along with it. I would say I can confidently survive in this area.

Poverty: 13

Wealth: 1

Middle Class: 12

I had higher scores in the Poverty and Middle Class areas than I had in the Wealth area. My results are pretty close to what I expected as I didn’t really relate to the statements from the Wealth area. They seemed more related to status and socializing within the upper class, and that is not something I have interacted with. I grew up in between Poverty and Middle Class I would say, so I learned how to be resourceful when life happened as well as learned some basic life skills. English is not my parents’ first language, so I grew up handling most interactions that had to be done in English and this contributed to a lot of the skills that were mentioned in the Middle Class area. I am most aware of the hidden rules in the Poverty and Middle Class since that is what I grew up in. I know how to work my way through most of the situations presented and how to interact with other people within these areas. I am not very aware of the hidden rules or social cues in the Wealth area. Due to this and based off my results, I would be able to survive in the Poverty or Middle Class areas. I would not be able to survive in the Wealthy area solely based on my results; I would have to fake it till I made it and pretend until I understood all the hidden rules and social cues it would take to survive and blend in in the Wealth area.
