Answer Key If your score is between 20 and 30, chances are you are non-productive or your life lacks stimulation. A score between 31 and 50 designates a good balance in your ability to handle and control stress. If you tallied up a score ranging between 51 and 60, your stress level is marginal and you are bordering on being excessively tense. If your total number of points exceeds 60, your stress level is high.
