Don't forget, sometime the test isn't about the test, it's about your reaction to the test, that is the test. Yelling about what a stupid test it is, is a sure way to flunk the test.
Sometimes you have to be just a little bit smarter than the test.
That's the test.
I'm not saying lie on the test, you can't win that, because there are so many similar questions, worded just a little bit differently, but you have to understand where you are and what job you are applying for, and answer accordingly.
The answer is:
"No, I do NOT like to go to parties, drink too much, and act like a jackass."
I think your kick ass social life may have put you out.

"You're too happy, don't answer so happy" seems to be common.

I know I'll get slammed for this, but most mil/civ psych guys I've encountered have been one step removed from witch doctors.
I've flown with more than a couple of guys over the years that appear to have slipped through the process, i.e., more than a few standard deviations outside the norm.
Not to mention the fact that one of our pysch's who was vetting us actually killed himself... so there you have it.
