Have you ever taken a personality test? I did and I will explain a few to you. I will be discussing what Myers Briggs type indicator does, I will tell you what the 8 multiple intelligences are as well as the Discovery Wheel. I will break each test down and explain every part of it and compare it to myself. First, The Myers Briggs type indicator tests your personality’s. The MBTI explores just one aspect.

A few ways this can help study are I can have someone quiz me before an exam. I can create or get involved in a study group. And avoid being alone when you try to study. My fourth intelligence was self (intrapersonal). I know where I stand when it comes to most things. I know when someone has passed my boundary. And unless someone can prove me wrong I won’t change my opinion. I also do not depend on others all the time.
