It's an awful test, and it's from an american viewpoint, so, for example, me trusting the IRS and UN more then the FBI and CIA is pretty obvious, cos the IRS has no possibility of negative influence on my life and the UN, unlike the CIA, has some sort of interest in Australia.

After all that, I got a...7. Tongue

9. I've taken it a couple of times IIRC, and I always scored between 7 and 9.

Yeah, anything from an American viewpoint is something "awful" according to Hugh.

No test is perfect, but yes, you are pretty far out in left field (no suprise).

Why on earth would I trust a foreign government's intelligence service?

I mean, come on. This is an american test dealing with american issues from an american viewpoint. It is hardly surprising that basically every foreigner scored in the lower half of this test, many lower then you would otherwise expect them to do so. I also had a lot of 'both' or 'neither' answers, etc.; which is another example of why this test fails-it considers moderates to be as left wing as jesse jackson in many of the questions.
