As an Objectivist, I am disappointed I wasn't able to get 100% for Ayn Rand.  But no real surprises here.

There there.... Aristotle was Rand's favorite non-Rand philosopher...

Note that I am not an Objectivist. I did read her books this summer, though, and they had an impact (in an obvious political one, I went from being a mainline conservative to a libertarian-leaning one).  I got 'John Stuart Mill' first, Aristotle second, the Epicurians third (who were they again?), and Rand fourth.

Re-took it. Main thing is that Aquinas and Aristotle rose relative to everyone else. I find it interesting that Opebo's two highest scorers - Hume and Hobbes - were near the bottom of my list.

1.    Aquinas   (100%)
2.    Aristotle   (95%)
3.    John Stuart Mill   (93%) 
4.    Epicureans   (88%) 
5.    Ayn Rand   (81%) 
6.    Kant   (81%) 
7.    Ockham   (70%) 
8.    Jeremy Bentham   (65%)
9.    Stoics   (63%)
10.    Jean-Paul Sartre   (62%)
11.    St. Augustine   (62%)
12.    Plato   (60%) 
13.    Spinoza   (60%) 
14.    Prescriptivism   (52%)
15.    Nietzsche   (37%)
16.    Cynics   (29%) 
17.    David Hume   (29%) 
18.    Nel Noddings   (29%) 
19.    Thomas Hobbes   (14%)

Updated again. Aquinas remains on top, with Rand replacing Aristotle in second, and Kant rising to third. I agree with everyone more than I did a semester ago... St. Augustine, Nietzsche, Sartre, and Hume all went up quite a bit. Hobbes is still on bottom. Hobbes remains on the bottom.
