Are You An Early Bird Or A Night Owl?

The questions are taken from Richard Wiseman's book <a href="http://nightschoolbook.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Night School</a>, and originally based on <a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1027738" target="_blank">this paper</a> by scientists Horne and Ostberg.

Remember this number – you'll need to add up the scores you get on all these questions.

Now you'll need to do a \*tiny\* bit of maths.

You feel super alert in the morning and like to be up and about earlier than most! Larks are more likely to be introverted, logical and reliable than night owls.   
If you can, schedule important meetings or exams for the morning – that's when you're at your best.

Strong Lark

You're at your best in the morning and tend to be one of the first in the breakfast queue. Larks are more likely to be introverted, logical and reliable than night owls.   
If you can, schedule important meetings or exams for the morning – that's when you're at your best.

Moderate Lark

You're neither a morning nor an evening person. That means you can get up early when you need to, but can stay up late and party with the best of them too! Basically everyone else is jealous of how flexible you are.

Neither Owl or Lark

You're a night person and find that you're more alert in the evening than the morning. Owls tend to be more extroverted, emotionally stable and creative than early birds.   
If you can, try to schedule important meetings or exams later in the day – that's when you're at your best.

Moderate Owl

You're a definite night person and get your best work done once everyone else has already gone to bed. Owls tend to be more extroverted, emotionally stable and creative than early birds.   
If you can, try to schedule important meetings or exams later in the day – that's when you're at your best.
