So I scored 40 on the eating disorder part. Which is complete craziness. All the eating disorder questions were aimed toward bulimia and binge eating/compulsive over eating. Those don't apply to me, so my score was so not what it should be [I mean, I have a medically anorexic BMI and I've been eating less than 300 calories every day, I kind of think the eating disorder part should have been more than a "mild concern", just saying]
I guess the point of this is: maybe take these results with a grain of salt? It just seems like the test doesn't ask a lot of the right questions.

Agreed. I didn't like the test either. I've taken other quzizes and they were more accurate and asked better questions.
The ED part of the quiz sucks. It seems to judge if you have an ED based on your weight/height. I've played around with it putting different things. So if it said you were anorexic based on your BMI, try putting something higher as your weight and answer the questions the same. It seems that if the quiz calculates your BMI as "normal" your ED score goes down. ![]() It had questions like "I'm not happy with myself" and "I hate the way I look".. Does ANYONE feel great about themselves when they have put on a significant amount of weight? Why does that point to an ED? "I don't eat the way I used to". What kind of question is that anyway? Your diet could now be healthier or unhealthier than it used to be. |

I agree as well. I got a 40 too for the Eating Disorder portion, and am considered to be underweight. I know I have an eating disorder. Now, some of the other things they told me I have, I'm not quite sure of!
