Introversion, the “N” stands for 'Intuition, the ''F” stands for feeling, and lastly the
“P” stands for perceiving.

introversion means I like keeping to myself. Intuition for me is like a feeling.
Perceiving is a way I take things.

3. List two strengths indicated on your report. Give an example from your life that
demonstrates that these qualities are strengths. A few of my strengths are self-
directed, independent learner and creativity. Being at this school it is mostly
independent study, so I do a lot of independent learning. I am also creative when
need be.

require creativity and let me work independently and with others who are self-
directed.

5. How can you use this information to make an informed career choice? I can use
my self-knowledge and strengths to choose a career I would succeed in. 
 
Part 2: Achieve Works Intelligences
Complete the Intelligences survey in Naviance. Use your report to answer the questions
below.

6. What are your top three intelligences? My top four intelligences are interpersonal,
spatial, intrapersonal, and kinesthetic.

7. What do these intelligences mean about you? Being interpersonal means I can
understand and work with people, build relationships, see the world from others'
point of view, communicate well verbally and non-verbally, cooperate in a group,
have influence, and respond to the mood, personality, and goals of others.
Spatial intelligence includes the ability to identify objects accurately, change and
recreate images, and recognize how shapes and objects relate to each other.
Intrapersonal intelligence includes the ability to understand oneself such as
emotions, fears, motivations, strengths, and weaknesses, so you do not drag
down a team. This intelligence provides me with the mind and body coordination
 needed to move my body and other objects. Kinesthetic influences are small
movements, such as using my fingers to play a musical instrument, and large
movements, such as running and catching a ball. 

8. How can you use this information to make an informed career choice? Now that I
know my strengths and understand my weaknesses, I can choose a career that
allows me to use my intelligence.

Part 5: Career Results Comparison
15. Review the career lists provided at the end of each survey. Identify three careers
that are similar across the lists. List the careers and explain why each career
may be satisfying to you citing evidence from your survey results.

The three careers I find most interesting, and satisfying are architecture and
construction cluster, civil engineers, and criminal justice and law enforcement.
Architecture and construction satisfy me because like my results stated I would
do well with hands on and independent work that is self-directed. Civil
engineering satisfies me because I am open to new ideas and am willing to listen
to ideas and can cooperate with a team. Lastly, criminal justice and law
enforcement could be something that interests me. Criminal justice satisfies me
because it allows me to be self-direct and practice being social and same with
law enforcement.
