A '''Personal Value Quotient''', or '''P.V.Q.''', is a system made by [[Professor Frink]] to measure your worthiness as a human being.

== History ==
When [[Mr. Burns]] was building a doomsday ark, he wanted to fill it with the most valuable people in [[Springfield]]. He invited [[Mensa]] to figure out who to put on the ark. Professor Frink told Burns and Mensa about his system of the Personal Value Quotient, which doesn't just measure how intelligent you are but also measures your worthiness as a human being. Frink then sold this idea to Burns and Mensa via [[P.V.Q. song|a song]].

The next day, everyone in Springfield is forced into taking the mandatory test. In the test, [[Jimbo]] copied off of [[Groundskeeper Willie]]. Later on [[Channel 6 News]], [[Kent Brockman]] announced all the scores, stating that they were on a scale of 1 to 500. [[Lisa]] was happy to find she got a score of 475, until she found out that [[Ralph]] had gotten a score of 476. Lisa then obsessed with finding out why Ralph was more worthy as a human being that she was, following him around.

Eventually, Lisa confronted Professor Frink and offered Lisa 10 extra points to her score for finding huge flaws in the test. Meanwhile, the people who got the highest score were on Burns' ark. After finding out they were to be slaves, they abandoned the ark.

== Things it tests for ==
The P.V.Q. test tested for a wide range of attributes in a person including sympathy, empathy, group collaboration, artistry, neatness, complex socialization, sarcasm, prudence, confidence, ambition, the teams you root for, earnestness and ego.

== Questions ==
One of the questions asked about the price of underwear. Another question was "Day is to night as early is to <blank>", to which [[Milhouse]] answered "late".

== Known scores ==
*[[Ralph Wiggum]] - 476
*[[Lisa Simpson]] - 475
*[[Marge Simpson]] - 311
*[[Bart Simpson]] - 265
*[[Homer Simpson]] - 001

:'''Note:''' Homer's and Bart's scores were accidentally mixed around due to Homer's sloppy handwriting.
