Am I A Narcissist?

I took the test and here is the result.

Results of your
Narcissistic Personality Quiz

Your Total: 16

Between 12 and 15 is average.
Celebrities often score closer to 18.
Narcissists score over 20.
Here's how you rated on the seven component traits of narcissism:
Narcissistic TraitStrength of Trait
Authority: 4.00
Self-Sufficiency: 5.00
Superiority: 2.00
Exhibitionism: 2.00
Exploitativeness: 0.00
Vanity: 0.00
Entitlement: 3.00
Below you will find a brief interpretation of each narcissism trait and what your score relative to that trait may indicate about you.
Authority
Authority refers to a person's leadership skills and power. People who score higher on authority like to be in charge and gain power, often for power's sake alone.
Self-Sufficiency
This trait refers to how self-sufficient a person is, that is, how much you rely on others versus your own abilities to meet your needs in life. You scored particularly high in self-sufficiency, suggesting you are highly self sufficient.
Superiority
This trait refers to whether a person feels they are more superior than those around them.
Exhibitionism
This trait refers to a person's need to be the center of attention, and willingness to ensure they are the center of attention (even at the expense of others' needs).
Exploitativeness
This trait refers to how willing you are to exploit others in order to meet your own needs or goals.
Vanity
This trait refers to a person's vanity, or their belief in one's own superior abilities and attractiveness compared to others.
Entitlement
This trait refers to the expectation and amount of entitlement a person has in their lives, that is, unreasonable expectations of especially favorable treatment or automatic compliance with one's expectations. People who score higher on this trait generally have a greater expectation of entitlement, while those who score lower expect little from others or life.
I didn't think self sufficiency could be a narcissistic trait. If you were self sufficient and you didn't need people can you be narcissistic? Hmm.
