Personality test

I don't think I ever mention here that GB's blog is actually the aspiration for this blog, and I have been reading his blog for ages. There is a post about a persionaliy test; these sort of tests are quite interesting as it can give another perspective of looking at myself. A few years ago, there was a personal development workshop, and everyone got to take a similar test at uni. The whole point was to raise an awareness that each of us has strengths and weaknesses, we need to work together as a team to bring out all the strengths. Advanced Global Personality Test can assessed here if you want to take it.

My result is as followed:


Extraversion |||||||||||||| 56%
Stability |||||||||||||||||| 76%
Orderliness |||||||||||||||||| 76%
Accommodation |||| 16%
Intellectual |||||||||||||||| 70%
Interdependence |||||||||||||||||||| 90%
Mystical |||| 20%

Stability results were high which suggests you are very relaxed, calm, secure, and optimistic.

Orderliness results were high which suggests you are overly organized, reliable, neat, and hard working at the expense too often of flexibility, efficiency, spontaneity, and fun. 

Extraversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity. 

Trait snapshot:
clean, organized, regular, self reliant, tough, positive, high self control, very good at saving money, dislikes chaos, resolute, realist, trusting, hard working, dislikes unpredictability, prefers a technical specialized career, not worrying, respects authority, enjoys leadership, finisher, normal, optimistic, controlling, prudent, modest, adventurous, does not like to be alone, intellectual, likes the unknown, very practical, high self esteem, assertive, perfectionist, busy, altruistic

Bold = some traits that are quite true
But there is one more trait to add - like to procrastinate studies towards exams. That's why I'm blogging right now!

  1. Wow, GVP, that's SUCH an old post of mine that you're referring to. It's also one that I thought was quite insignificant! Anyway, thanks for mentioning my old blog, and keep up the good work over here :-).
