What do my results say about me?

Scrubs is full of unique and fun characters, and this quiz will tell you which one you're most like, as well as what your results might indicate about your personality:


J.D.: Like J.D., you're a dreamer and an idealist...and a little bit of a clown. You follow your dreams and aren't afraid of looking silly: you know that real bravery means being vulnerable sometimes, and that it's the only way to really make a difference in the world. And you want nothing more than to make a difference (and have fun while doing it). You love your friends and would do anything to support them. You never give up, even when the going gets tough. You're an inspiration!

Turk: Like Turk, you're hysterical, fun-loving, and big-hearted. You're hardworking and not afraid to get your hands dirty to get a job done, but you also know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy—and you insist on having as much fun as you can at basically all times! Your friends adore you because, though you're smart and dedicated to changing the world, you also possess a sense of childlike wonder that keeps you hopeful, optimistic...and a blast to hang out with!

Elliot: Like Elliot, you're ultra-smart, dedicated, and more driven than just about anyone. You know what you want, and you aren't afraid to go after it! Sure, you can be a little high-strung at times, but it's just because you care so much. Besides, you're not totally Type A: you know how to kick back, relax, and have a good time once in a while. Some folks may call you "quirky," but as far as we're concerned, all that means is you're not afraid to march to the beat of your own drum, and we applaud that!

Carla: You're a total sweetheart...but you can also kick major butt. You're empathetic and unfailingly generous, but nobody can call you a pushover—you know your worth! You're a natural-born leader, one of the people who Gets Things Done™, and you're not afraid to call out nonsense when you see it, no sir! People trust you to take charge of every situation because you've got a good head on your shoulders as well as a kind heart. The best of both worlds!

Dr. Cox: You're all biting sarcasm on the surface, but you've got an ooey-gooey heart of gold underneath! You'd hate for anyone to know it, but you care about things very very deeply. You just don't like to wear your heart on your sleeve. You're a natural leader, and you know how to TCB (take care of business), but when the chips are down, there's nobody we'd want in our corner more than you: not only would you do anything to support the people you love, but your dry humor would have them laughing the whole time!

The Janitor: What can we say, you're a bit of a weirdo (complimentary). You like to cultivate an air of mystery wherever you go, and you take joy in being the oddball in your friend group—but you're also surprisingly wise at times. You've probably got an obscure hobby—maybe not squirrel taxidermy, but something strange, like...painting portraits of the nation's president as horses, or singing opera to plants, or something. You're unapologetically you, and we salute it!
