Ok, here goes:
1. Are you intelligent (though did not necessarily have top grades).
Yes, highly intelligent
2. Are you very creative and enjoy making things.
My hobbies include model building, writing and songwriting, so I'd say yes.
3. Do you always need to know WHY (especially why you are being asked to do something).
It honestly depends. If I can see that there's a clear reason that it needs to be done, I'll do it, but I have no time for social conventions which exist for reasons which may not even be relevanty anymore and which most people don't even know the reasons behind.
4. Do you have disgust and perhaps loathing for the inanity of much of the required work in school, the repetition.
So much so that I plan on doing my PhD on it and the entire education system if I make it that far before society falls apart.
5. Were you rebellious in school, refusing to do homework, rejecting authority of teachers OR seriously wanted to rebel, but didn't DARE, usually due to parental pressure.
I knew just how far to push it, but didn't cross that line because of how my family were and because of the battering my self-esteem took from constant bullying
6. have you experienced early existential depression and feelings of helplessness. These may have ranged from sadness to utter despair. Suicidal feelings while still in high school or younger are not uncommon in the Indigo Adult.
Yes, I suffered suicidal depression for many years and felt that helplessness since I was 10.
7. Do you have difficulty in service-oriented jobs - resistance to authority and caste system of employment.
Depends on the authority. Powertripping authority for sure, but people in authority who are supportive and work with you as opposed to working to slot you in the pecking order I have no time for. Also haven't had a good record in service based jobs.
8. Do you prefer cooperative efforts or leadership position or solo if expertise is valued.
Depends on who the situation. Whatever the task requires to be done in the right way is where my preference lies. I often feel a need to try and take charge, but if someone else has more expertise, I'm happy to work with them with them in the leadership role.
9. Have you deep empathy for others, yet an intolerance of stupidity.
To the point when I can even sense what a person is like in extreme cases without speaking to them, just by being in their presence.
10. Are you extremely emotionally sensitive including crying at the drop of a hat (no shielding) - to no expression of emotion (full shielding).
To the point where friends are concerned about it.
11. Do you have trouble with RAGE.
Following through on it, no- everything else, yes is an understatement.
12. Do you have trouble with most systems (either emotionally, mentally, or physically)- political, educational, medical, law.
Depends, well thought out parts of them, no, but bureaucratic conventional thinking, completely!
13. Do you feel alienated from politics - feeling your voice won't count and that the outcome really doesn't matter anyway.
No, that's a luxury we don't have. As a wise man once said, "all that need happen for evil to prosper is for good people to do nothing".
14. Do you feel frustration with or rejection of the traditional American dream - 9-5 career, marriage, 2.5 children, house with white picket fence, etc.
I do, it stops people from ever really being free to find their true dreams (even if their true dream wound up eventually being the traditional one).
15. Do you feel anger at rights being taken away, fear and/or fury at "Big Brother watching you."
Of course
16. Do you feel a need like a burning desire to do something to change and improve the world. But feel stymied what to do.
Yes but I refuse to let that get in the way
17. Did you have psychic or spiritual interest fairly young - in or before teen years.
In my teenage years definitely
18. Have you had few if any Indigo role models.
Yes
19. Do you have strong intuition.
Yes
20. Do you have random behavior pattern or mind style - (symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder), may have trouble focusing on a task unless of OWN choosing, may jump around in conversations.
I was diagnosed with mild ADD at the age of 15.
21. Have you had psychic experiences, such as premonitions, seeing angels or ghosts, hearing voices, intuitive thoughts coming through etc
I've had both psychic dreams of a symbolic and premonition based nature, as well as hearing a voice once or twice, as well as profound intuitive thoughts on many occasions.
22. Are you sexually expressive and inventive OR do you reject sexuality in boredom. May explore alternate types of sexuality.
Yes (the expanded answer is private 
)
23. Do you seek meaning to their life and understanding about the world you may seek this through religion, spiritual groups and books, self-help groups or books, or individually.
Of course, for the longest time.
The score I'd argue I score there is 22/23. Where my answer wasn't a straight yes, it was because the questions failed to be specific enough with what they were asking about and I feel my answers were ultimately what the questions classed as a "yes".
Now for the other discussion:

Yet I don't think it can do that with a true indigo. The fact is that all Indigo's actually are vehemently opposed to elitism, I'm almost certain a good friend of mine in Arizona is an indigo and both of us honestly want there to be the most radical form of democracy possible to ultimately exist worldwide. Yes we're special, but all we arguably are, are guides to remind people of what really matters and where their priorities lie so that they too can get there in the end.
