What Is a Good Rice Purity Test Score?
Short answer: there isn’t a single “good” number. The Rice Purity Test is a fun, informal checklist of experiences—not a moral ranking. Still, many people ask how scores are commonly viewed. Here’s a balanced guide.
How People Often See Ranges
- 85–100: More sheltered; fewer social/party experiences
- 75–84: Balanced lifestyle with selective experiences
- 65–74: Quite social; broader exposure to dating/parties
- 55–64: Very social; more varied experiences than average
Why “Good” Is Subjective
Different communities value different things. Some see high scores as responsible and focused; others view lower scores as adventurous and outgoing. Neither is universally “better.”
Better Questions to Ask
- Does my score reflect choices I genuinely feel good about?
- Am I comparing to others in a way that hurts my well‑being?
- What experiences matter to me beyond this checklist?
If You Want a Reference
Many people tend to fall in the mid‑60s to mid‑80s, depending on age, campus culture, and personal values. Use this as context—not a target.
