TikTokis constantly seeing new trends emerge, including popular quizzes and tests that attract thousands of people eager to share their results with their followers.
One that’s currentlyblowing up on the appis the ‘standards test,’ which is a dating calculator that shows you “what percent of men/women in the United States meet your standards.” The tool allows participants to select 14 traits they desire in a partner, including gender, age, height, salary, and more.
Some users have found that their chances of finding their ideal partner are extremely slim due to being too picky, prompting them to refer to the matchmaking service as the ‘delusion calculator.’

Remember, the more picky you are with your preferences, the fewer eligible matches you’ll find who meet your standards.
It’s also worth noting that the calculator is not completely accurate. The website states: “While the Standards Calculator provides a percentage reasonably close to reality, it may not be 100% accurate. The tool is applicable only to the US population.”
