You pasted your conscientiousness score over your extroversion score - or it was an error on the part of the quiz.
I mean... probably.
I could be wrong..
Please don't be mad.

They're standardized tests after all...

Well, yeah. Unfortunately not everyone might keep that in mind while reading those descriptions (i.e. when not about themselves).

The questions are too short and could be interpreted in different ways depending on context, not to mention most of the questions were in the test at least twice, just reworded a bit. Like "I don't talk much" and "I talk a lot" hehe. Perhaps it was an intention, but you can afford to do such a thing seriously only in tests with hunderths of questions, to have the desirable effect on tested subject :P

It's standard for psychometric testes to ask the same question twice in different words. It's a way to check if the testee is giving consistent answers.

I'm well aware of that, but as I said, it bears meaning in long, complex tests, not like...
1. Do you like cake?
2. Do you not like cake?
3. Don't you like cake?
You first have to set the mind of tested subject on other topics, preferably make him forget the question was asked already. Of course, if you put complex test on the net, noone will answer it. In the world of the internetz, even 5 minutes is pushing it.

I would figure the answers would be the same unless the scaling changes or the test makes the subject suddenly crave/hate cake (deviating from their original disposition) in the process somehow.
Anyway, my OCEAN score:
|--------O--|
|------O----|
|-O---------| (....)
|-----O-----|
|---O-------|
Openness to Experience/Intellect
You enjoy having novel experiences and seeing things in new ways. (Your percentile: 80)
Conscientiousness
You are neither organized or disorganized. (Your percentile: 58)
Extraversion
You probably enjoy spending quiet time alone. (Your percentile: 5)
Agreeableness
You are neither extremely forgiving nor irritable. (Your percentile: 50)
Neuroticism
You are generally relaxed. (Your percentile: 37)
So it would seem, my nonchalance (among other things) balances everything except the fact that I am an introvert.
