What is the Rice Purity Test?

The Rice Purity Test started back in 1924 at Rice University in Houston, Texas, when a few students made a short survey to see how “pure” people were based on their life experiences. Years later, in the 1980s, Rice students turned it into a bigger 100-question quiz. This test was primarily created for first-year college students, especially for O-Week (Orientation Week) students, to serve as a private self-assessment quiz.

Its main goal was to give freshmen an enjoyable and private way to reflect on their past life experiences, habits, and relationships before starting college life. Over time, the test has become very popular, and today people of all ages take it, including students, couples, and friends.

The score is calculated based on how many questions you check. Every box you tick means you’ve had that experience, so the more you check, the lower your score. A higher number usually means you’re more innocent, while a lower score means you’ve had more real-life experiences.

How Does the Rice Purity Test Work?

Taking the test is simple: read through all 100 statements and check the ones that apply to you. Once you finish, click “Calculate My Score.” Your purity score is calculated as 100 minus the number of items you checked. For example, if you checked 28 items, your score would be 72 out of 100.

Is the Rice Purity Test Accurate?

The Rice Purity Test is not a scientific or clinical assessment. It is a lighthearted, informal quiz designed for entertainment and personal reflection. Your score is entirely self-reported, so accuracy depends on your own honesty. It should not be used to judge anyone or make serious conclusions about a person’s character.
