VARK learning types.
I have never thought about how i learn best, whether visual, aural, read/write or kinesthetic, so i thought this test would show that i am a mixed learner and that all the scores would be very close.
However this was not the case and my scores are as followed:
V - 2
A - 2
R - 2
K - 10
My visual, aural and read/write learning ability scored the same which i assumed they would. However, the kinesthetic score was alot higher which i wasn't expecting.
Then when looking at the different definitions it became clearer to me that perhaps i do learn best using a kinesthetic approach rather than visual, aural or read/write.

Myers Briggs type indicator!
I scored: E N T P - which suggests that i am within 10% of the population with the same/very similar personality type.
I looked on the Myers Briggs website to see what my personality was and whether it reflects who i am, this is what it said:
Quick, ingenious, stimulating, alert, and outspoken. Resourceful in solving new and challenging problems. Adept at generating conceptual possibilities and then analyzing them strategically. Good at reading other people. Bored by routine, will seldom do the same thing the same way, apt to turn to one new interest after another.
After having read this i decided that the personality test did reflect my personality and that alot of the traits listed above i had. Normally i don't believe in these kind of tests, i never feel they reflect who i am which was why i was very suprised that this one did.
