What does/doesn't surprise me about my results

# data[].attributes.body
Not a lot of the results surprise me, which is the most surprising thing. I thought there would be a lot more that didn’t fit, as I had a bunch of bad luck with getting something to match me before I got campaigner. Besides that, not too many things surprised me. A lot of things fit me, such as being able to pick up on slight changes in someone’s mood or some of the things in the friendship section, which weren’t included. Besides the fact that I got something that actually fits me, nothing really surprised me much.

There weren’t many specific things, but there were a couple things I was interested in. To get them out of the way, some of the suggested paths I find boring are nonprofits, public service, counciling, education, or customer or public relations. The reason I don’t like these is because I hate people, especially in the teaching area, as that most likely will get me places with younger kids (which I severely don’t want). Some more, up my alley kind of jobs would be things suggested in the scientific field. Things that are technical, or things like human health or earth/environmental sciences would be good. Which makes me happy because I want to be a geologist. The main thing suggested is something not super monotonous but rather something where one can express creativity.

One of the more surprising things on the weakness list is being a people pleaser. That may sound weird, since wouldn’t being able to please people be a strength? It could be to some extent, but the problem arises when it becomes too much of a priority. Campaigners worry too much about pleasing people so when someone dislikes them, they can lose sleep over it and end up giving too much to make someone else happy, and in turn not taking care of themselves.

The other two weaknesses that stood out to me are overly accommodating and being unfocused. Campaigners can become overly accommodating whenever people ask things of them. Being a people pleaser they almost always say yes, and can get stretched too thin and end up not leaving enough space for themselves. This kind of ties back to being a people pleaser, but the main differentiating factor is that being a pleaser means changing yourself to abide by people, while the other means not changing much but rather not being able to say no. All being said it sounds like the main weaknesses for campaigners is being too nice.

Some of my strengths are lower body strength, abdominal strength, no I’m just kidding. Which leads me to my first strength, being “festive”. Being “festive” is about being able to find fun or joy in almost anything, like me making jokes in a long body of paragraphs I have to write for a grade. Though sometimes this can come in not so handy and I find things funny at the wrong time, which can get me in trouble. Such as the teacher or someone giving a big speech about behavior or something, and I find something funny in it and start giggling. That’s my first strength, being “festive”.

My second strength is being curious. I have a thirst for knowledge that many do not have, so if I ask someone about something and they say no I devote much of my energy to finding it. The only thing I have found that this doesn’t affect is gifts, because it’s no fun knowing what you’re getting beforehand (though I will think about it).

My next two strengths are being perceptive and being an excellent communicator. Being perceptive I’m apparently better at picking up on slight changes in people’s mood or expression. This ties nicely with being a good communicator since I can talk about things if people need them, and like the paper said, I can listen well.

My last strength is being enthusiastic. This may not seem like something groundbreaking or anything but the description of this trait really fit me. When I find something I like or something I find interesting I go to the nearest person and just regurgitate what I heard. I’m also very enthusiastic as to hearing their response, as I often force people to respond when they ignore me. Those are my strengths, and how they can affect my daily life.

From this assessment, I have learned that I’m a lot more hands on than I thought, and that I hardly care about people. Of course, I have many doubts. It is incredibly hard to be able to sum up a person based on a score from their answers to questions, and as a result I am very skeptical when it comes to online personality quizzes. Of course, for the sake of the assignment I will be really analyzing the results so I have something to write about, being completely honest. So that being said, I am apparently uncompassionate and have little care for others. My social conscious score was 30, while it needed to be high 40s for me to count as a socially conscious person, so it said I didn’t like helping people and stick to myself, while I tend to disagree. I personally don’t think that I would hold a ton of value to this if I were actually going to college soon.

Use flashcards to learn new words; read them out loud.

Read stories, assignments, or directions out loud.

Record yourself spelling words and then listen to the recording.

Have test questions read to you out loud.

Study new material by reading it out loud.

Remember that you need to hear things, not just see things, in order to learn well.

What might prevent me from going to college

What might prevent me from going to college

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most likely thing preventing me from going to college is the cost. The Ohio State University, the one I want to go to, would be around $30,000 per year. Which is why I want to get a scholarship from the marching band, it would help me pay for it. But of course I have received an existential crisis from this, because I kinda want to go for a degree in music, but that’s really uncertain for getting a job unless I become a band director, and I hate children so I’m not doing that. So, I think money is the biggest threat for me not going to college, but the way I want to pay for it may lead me down an uncertain career path.

The main thing that I learned about colleges during my research is that they’re a lot more complex in choosing then I previously thought. I thought that you would want to find a good, respectable school that isn’t too expensive, maybe a couple other things. Now, I have learned that colleges depend on the price, whether or not you want to be nearby, what they require you to have taken, what their job placement is, ect.It has so many factors you have to take into account it's just too much. So, that is what I learned about colleges through this, that they are more complex in choosing than I had thought.

I definitely liked Lander University the least. It’s way down in South Carolina, doesn’t have any of the degrees I want to go for, and it's expensive. So the first point I said, of it being all the way down in South Carolina. I chose it because it’s near family, but they live closer to Atlanta Georgia, and I would be mooching off of them in a lake house near Hartwell Lake, assuming they let me stay there. I would also be taking a boat across the lake to the college, and then taking a car from there. The other two points are self explanatory, it doesn’t take geology and it’s around $40,000 per year. Which is why I liked Lander University the least.

As I am basic in my choice of college, I think I liked Ohio State University the best. It best serves my wants for a degree, having geology, music, and engineering. It also is the closest college to my family, so I won’t have to go super far for it. I also have prior to this college road trip made plans as to how I want to pay for it. I want to get a scholarship from being in the marching band. Once I’m there I’ll go for geology, as I want to be a geologist for my job. So that’s why I liked Ohio State University the most and want to go there for college.

Something that really stood out to me while researching was that every college that I looked at required these three things: high school GPA, high school rank, and college prep courses (except for Lander Uni. who had SAT instead of prep, but we don’t talk about Lander). I thought there would be a little variety, such as one school wants SAT/ACT instead of high school rank, and then another wants something completely different from both of those choices. Except there was only one college that differed from the rest. Lander, the one that differed in requirements, was also the smallest school, and I couldn’t find as much info on it. Another thing is how most schools' acceptance rate is almost always around 50%. But, as there was an exception to the last example, there is one now. Dayton University, one of four colleges I did, has an exception rate of 72%. Of course, I do realize some colleges do have 100% acceptance and some have 10%. I just find it odd that ¾ of the colleges I found were roughly 50%. That’s some of the things that stuck out to me while searching for colleges
