What a score of 94–97 means
A score between 94 and 97 means you checked between three and six items. These are usually the gentle, first-step experiences on the list: holding hands, a first date, maybe a first kiss, or telling your parents a small white lie about where you were.
This range is extremely common among people in their early teens and first years of high school, and among anyone who has prioritized school, sports, faith or family over nightlife.
What people in this range typically have (and haven't) done
| Likely checked | Likely not checked |
|---|---|
| Held hands romantically | Drinking or vaping |
| Been on a date | Parties with alcohol |
| A first kiss | Trouble with the police |
| Stayed up all night | Relationships with intimacy |
How it compares
You are purer than the large majority of people who take the classic test online. That said, comparisons depend heavily on who is taking the test. Among a group of 13-year-olds, a 95 would be perfectly average.
Is a 95 a good Rice Purity score?
It is not "good" or "bad". It is simply a snapshot. The test was never designed to rank people, and a high number is no more of an achievement than a low one.
