Is that the fingerprint analysis? I’m not really familiar with it. That would be nifty, though, if it did work!

This is what I got. Intrapersonal Intelligence
Intrapersonal intelligence is centered on being aware of one’s own thoughts, feelings and motivations. People who are strong in this type of intelligence are very good at self-reflection and personal insight. They tend to know themselves very well and enjoy activites that lead to further self-awareness.
Common characteristics of intrapersonal intelligence:
Solid understanding of one’s own temperament and personality
Enjoys day-dreaming and introspection
Strong sense of self-identity and purpose
Good at evaluation theories and concepts
I agree some-what, but I don’t think I am that self-aware.
This was fun, though.

I got linguistic-verbal. I think it is somewhat true of me because I love to read and I am a teacher. However, like some people mentioned sometimes none of the answers applied and others I wanted to choose multiple answers. Thanks for sharing the quiz!

I felt the same way, Melissa. I think it’s due to the “quickie” quiz version. 🙂

I got linguist-verbal too. I think it’s because I put down reading so much. They didn’t even have my choice for TV programs like crime drama. Had to put down what I might watch if nothing else available. Love your books. Just finished Hazard Homecoming. Great book.

I got linguistic- verbal. I agree with it in some ways, I’m not in the teaching profession but I do teaching as part of my job and I love to read. I know it was a short quiz and they are limited, but I had a couple of problems with the quiz, I wanted to close more than one answer for some questions and then on others, my preferred answer wasn’t an option. It was interesting to see what they thought my area of intelligence was. I was hoping for answers that had to do with the human body and diseases! I’m kinda weird. Lol.

I had the same trouble wanting to choose more than one answer. I think you can take more expanded quizzes which would probably be more specific. Thanks for trying it out!

I’m not sure about that. Sometimes explaining things is hard for me, like it’s in my brain but getting out of my mouth is a whole other matter! 🙂 But I do love to read and learn best when reading about the subject.
