Friendship Quiz Statistics: What 439,770 Results Reveal

We reviewed stored quiz scores from the Turkish sister site arkadastesti.com. The 30 July 2026 snapshot contains 439,770 score records. It helps illustrate how a quiz score differs from knowing a friend; it does not measure the depth of a friendship.

Perfect scores in this snapshot

In this snapshot, 8.4% of score records have 10 out of 10. The count does not tell us what participants expected before answering. More than nine in ten stored scores are below 10; repeat attempts may appear more than once.

A quiz may ask about a favourite colour, a preferred dish or a particular song. A missed detail does not establish a problem in a friendship, and this score count does not identify why any answer was missed.

The Real Average Is 5.9 out of 10

Across the stored results, the weighted mean is 5.9 out of 10. This describes the historical score records; it does not measure how well a person knows a friend.

Genuine knowledge of a friend shows up elsewhere: how you behave when you're angry, what upsets you without your saying so, when you need to be left alone. None of that is captured by ten multiple-choice questions. A low score could reflect specific questions or changed preferences; these counts cannot identify the reason.

Result records per quiz

Among quiz IDs with at least one saved score, the snapshot shows a mean of 4.28 score records per quiz and a maximum of 278. These counts are not unique friends or people, and quizzes with no scores are excluded. They do not tell us why a link was shared or how many responses a new quiz should receive.

Why Scores Land Below Expectations

For a conversation rather than a verdict, choose preferences you have discussed and answer options that mean different things. A missed answer may be a chance to explain what changed. The snapshot does not test whether these choices raise scores or strengthen a friendship.

How to Read a Statistic Without Penalising Yourself

Three rules help here, and outside here too. First, an average describes a group; it isn't a personal target, and there's no sense in feeling bad about being below average in a game. Second, an average does not show the full score distribution; quiz difficulty was not measured. Third, the scope defines the result: these numbers describe stored score records from one site, not unique people or the population in general.

The mean summarises scores in this historical database. It does not show what percentage of you a friend knows, or predict the score in your own quiz.

Putting the Numbers to Use

You can try changing the questions to open a different conversation, but these counts do not show whether doing so raises scores. Use details you've actually talked about, keep answer options meaningfully distinct, and mix in two or three questions about temperament rather than trivia — discussing the answers may help you learn about one another.

To open a conversation about how you understand each other, ask things like "what bothers me that I never say" instead of "what's my favourite drink." Use the answers to start a conversation; changing the questions does not turn the ranking into a validated measure of closeness.

The Limits of This Data

It's worth being clear about what these numbers cannot tell us. They don't know who created each quiz or their relationship to the people answering. They don't distinguish a serious quiz from one written as a joke. And they can't tell whether a participant answered thoughtfully or clicked through to see the result. The counts alone cannot establish how these factors affect the average.

So these figures should be read as the stored score distribution from one site, not as a measurement of any particular relationship. Your friendship isn't summarised by a number, and the quiz is a way to open a conversation rather than to deliver a verdict.

Try It Yourself

The most useful thing you can do with these numbers is stop treating a middling score as bad news. Create a friendship quiz, send it to three or four people individually, and pay attention to the conversation it starts rather than the ranking it produces.

Source and method

This historical snapshot is from the arkadastesti.com results database, extracted on 30 July 2026 at 17:19 UTC. Grouping stored score rows by score gave 439,770 records; 36,863 scored 10, or 8.4% rounded to one decimal. The weighted mean is 5.8677, rounded to 5.9 out of 10. The query used no date filter or deduplication. The first record date, unique participant count, completion status, and test or bot exclusions were not verified. These are stored results from the Turkish sister site, not current FriendQuiz users or a representative friendship survey.

This analysis uses aggregate score counts only; names and other personal fields were not included in the analysis.
