Sooperstar Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 According to the BBC there are now 7 social classes in Britain. According to the test I am Technical Middle Class.

Craigieboy Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Result: the class group you most closely match is: Established middle class This is the most gregarious and the second wealthiest of all the class groups. According to the Great British Class Survey results, lots of people in this group: Enjoy a diverse range of cultural activities Went to university Are comfortably off, secure and established Didn't go to Uni though. Self made man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I did this, this morning, and found out I am apparently "Established Middle Class". I don't hold too much stock in this, to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoJack Horseman Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Emergent service worker. This class group is financially insecure, scoring low for savings and house value, but high for social and cultural factors. According to the Great British Class Survey results, lots of people in this group: Are young Enjoy a cultured social life Rent their home - almost 90% Sounds about right.

Shanks said no Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Established middle class although I don't see how that can be the case, making me feel old if that's right, a bit like my parents! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoJack Horseman Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Same here. Second bottom class That's what happens when you spend every penny you earn and don't have a mortgage. Better than being at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ribble Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Apparently Established Middle Class, load of bollocks tbh All it takes in that quiz is to earn ?25,001 a year (2k less than the average in Edinburgh), have a mortgage of ?125,001 (Can get you an old 2 bed flat just outside the city centre), have savings of a quid, know folk doing a variety of different jobs and sometimes go to the theatre!

Marvin Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Turns out I am in the class group called "Emergent Service Workers" reading it equates to scum class with varied social life or something like that, based on this class most people are: Young Enjoy a cultured social life Rent their home - almost 90% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig_ Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Told me I was Elite also, the test's clearly flawed. I'd imagine someone from the real elite might have more than about 52p left in their bank account by the end of the month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
