Task 2

Personality test

Today I took a personality test and I was surprised to find my personality about which I was not aware of. My personality was described as "Determined Realist" and I was pretty amazed about it. Below are some points about my personality as found by personality test

1.     Practical, traditional and organized.

2.     Likely to be athletic.

3.     Not interested in theory or abstraction unless they see the practical application.

4.     Have clear visions of the way things should be.

5.     Loyal and hard-working.

6.     Like to be in charge.

7.     Exceptionally capable in organizing and running activities.

8.     "Good citizens" who value security and peaceful living.

After the personality test I looked at these points as tried think about myself and I found these points are true.

The personality test also pointed out some of the career fields that I could fit with my personality and which are Military, business administrators, managers, police/detective work, judges, financial officers, teachers, sales representatives, government workers, insurance agents, underwriters, nursing administrators, trade and technical teachers. Although the personality test pointed out some career fields for me and currently I am not heading toward any of the career path stated above but I have always dreamed of being a soldier and serving my country.

The personality test also gave a chart about my personality. The chart shows that

·         I am little more extroverted than introverted

            [extrovert- somebody whose interests are directed outside the self,introvert-

             somebody whose feelings and thoughts are directed inward]

·         I am more sensing than intuitive

  [intuitive- knowing things instinctively]

·         I choose thinking over the feelings

·         I am little more judging than perceiving

The personality test also gave the names of the renowned persons with similar personality as mine which are given below.

·         Andrew Jackson, American president
