I took the Emotional Intelligence test:

According to your self-report answers, your emotional intelligence is excellent. People who score like you do feel that they have almost no trouble understanding and dealing with their own emotions and those of others.
They have an easy time overcoming difficulties in their lives and they are able to control their moods. It’s easy for them to motivate themselves to overcome obstacles and reach their goals.
In addition, they find social interactions to be quite easy and fulfilling, for several reasons. They are comfortable allowing themselves to get close with others, and feel comfortable being vulnerable enough to establish intimacy.
They also report having an easy time offering support to others; this is likely due to an empathetic nature and a clear mind when it comes to offering good advice.

This is one of my gifts in real life.
After hubby describes someone from work, I can ask him a question and then provide an almost complete psychological profile on the person.
Then I give hubby advice on how to deal with this person.
I think that hubby keeps me around for this reason -- big help figuring out how to respond to people.
I'm good with my students. They feel like I "get" them -- but in a way that is ok for our teacher / student setting.
One problem with this -- I am surrounded by emotions. I am flooded with the emotions of myself and others.
I can walk into a room and feel the emotions and need to leave sometimes.
I took the test so that no one would think I am a contrarian.
Sorry if I was rude in my earlier post.
I still think that the tests are crap and tell us what we already know anyway.
