I think she got maybe, like, 2 out of 10. I mean, interest in learning (whether it be about science, math, obscure anthropological finds, etc) is a pretty big part of being a geek.
I'll give her a half-point for "Uncommon", because generally geeks are not particularly invested in the mainstream, or, for that matter, in normality (as defined by the mainstream) being something to aspire to.
And I'll give her a half-point for "Late-Bloomer", although I would dispute her definition - I mean, not wearing g-strings at 10 is not being a late-bloomer, it's being, I don't know, sane. And geeks generally are not doing that kind of thing because a) g-strings are uncomfortable and b) too busy trying to design faster-than-light travel to participate in pointless mating displays.

Everything else is pretty much wrong, though.
