It shows that you're interested in cool/fun things, but not an over-the-top risk taker.
Caveat to what I’m about to say. I took it when it was pass/fail, so it may have changed since then🤷‍♂️ I think the technique above could possibly lead you astray. I agree consistency counts, which is why I think you should answer honestly, and not try to answer the way you think the test wants you to answer. You’ll be asked the same question in slightly different ways multiple times. If you’re not honest, it would be easier to show inconsistency in your answers, which indicates you’re not being honest. I was given what I think was good advice. You will have a gut answer almost immediately when you read a question. That’s probably the one you should go with. If you start over thinking everything - “if I answer this way, they’ll think this…” your responses may be all over the map.

Also, there are (were) a few “I always” “I never” questions. Those are generally false, disagree. “I never break any rules” for instance.
