I have read the book (as noted in the current reading thread) and now did the test on the authors website.
http://www.wisdomofpsychopaths.com/personality-test.php
These are my results:
Neuroticism: Low
Extraversion: High
Openness to Experience: Very High
Agreeableness: Low
Conscientiousness: Low
Persuasiveness: Very High
It seems I score quite a bit extreme...
Edits: I do have a problem with formatting issues 😉
I, too, feel my Conscientiousness Score should be higher, but this is an interesting test.

Maybe we should get our nearest and dearest to score for us??
