Circle the column with the highest score and consult the next page to see which intern you most resemble....

I. Lovable and kind, you draw people to you with your warmth, and many seek you out as a friend. You have a problem speaking your mind, however, which fuels your insecurities; even you know you should embrace your inner oddball and become more comfortable in your own skin. You're a George!

II. You really think you're hot stuff, don't you? Arrogant, aggressive, and self-promoting, you're of the mind that niceties are for the weak of heart, and that to prove yourself you need to be the loudest, the toughest, and the hardest, even if you secretly yearn for tenderness. You're an Alex!

III. Passionate and proud, you feel things so strongly that you'reeasily frustrated or capable of flying off the handle when coolerheads should prevail. Your sensitivity, however, is an asset, as itkeeps you honest and ultimately brings you closer to those around you. You're an Izzie!

IV. You can be extremely competitive, unable to come to terms with the fact that your desire to prove your intellectual capabilities is often seen as abrasive and cold. This quest for perfection, however, reveals the wounds of a restrictive childhood, one you desperately want to leave behind. You're a Cristina!

V. You're too smart to be so adrift, but there you are, a rudderless ship floating aimlessly through the seas of life. A true romantic at heart, you're introspective to a fault, so much so that you often find yourself becoming frazzled, exhausted, and racked with self-doubt. You're a Meredith!
