I thought this was pretty interesting, even though it obviously doesn't and cannot take in to account all aspects of what it means to be privileged. Some of the points are a little random.

I got 60/100: "You’re quite privileged. You’ve had a few struggles, but overall your life has been far easier than most. This is not a bad thing, nor is it something to be ashamed of. But you should be aware of your advantages and work to help others who don’t have them."

Pretty much what I expected! Thanks Australia, for the free public healthcare and affordable tertiary education (for now...)
