Personality tests

This lesson we learned about different tests that as an individual we can do, to find out more about our own personality and what type of person we are.
The two that we mostly learned about were the VARK and Honey & Mumford personality tests and we completed both of these.

VARK personality test was a test that gives you a scenario and asks how you would deal with this scenario from the choice of four answers. There at 16 questions in this test. At the end of the test, you have to work out the conclusion of your test by plotting your answers on a table and working out which out of V A R K you answered most.
When I did this test, I was half V and K, which means that the visual and kinaesthetic parts of the test were high for me. But as you can see from the results below, the read/write score was very close.
This means that I learn best when I can see what I need to learn. This can be shown in a type of Diagram or an image. Also, because I am a kinaesthetic learner, I learn well when I can touch things, when the lessons are practical and I can remember doing an activity instead of listening to something.
This will help me when I have to revise for a test and in general life as I know how I learn best and it will help me remember things easier. I know that, instead of sitting and listening to a recording of the lesson, I can look over my notes and memorise the diagrams that were shown to me, or by making my own e.g. a mood board or mind map.

The other personality test we learned about was the Honey & Mumford personality test. This tells you your preferred learning style. It is a series of 80 questions, what you have to do is say whether you agree with this statement about yourself or whether you disagree by ticking next to the statement. Once you have finished, you need to circle, on a chart, which questions that you agreed to, each number of question is a score and when you add up all the ones you agreed you in each section. You need to plot them onto a graph and it tells you which learning style you are.

When I did this test, I found out that I was a theorist.
This means that I am
-Logical and objective
-Systematic and analytical
-Thinks through things
-A perfectionist

Doing this made me realise that I am more of a personality to think through things before I do them, thinking about the consequences before I do anything. I do not believe this is what I am and I want to work on making myself a little more free-willing and try new activities.
