I could totally see that.

It makes me wonder if we all have a propensity to trip over our own feet!

Naturalist: 10
Musical: 90
Logical: 80
Existential: 50
Interpersonal: 10
Kinesthetic: 10
Verbal: 80
Intrapersonal: 30
Visual: 40

Linking ''being organized'' with logical thinking is a bit controversial in my opinion. I have a very organized way of thinking, I like to think step by step. But I am very disorganized physically.

I have to agree with you. I think my naturalist score came from answering about my pets, to be honest.

You must have seen wrong because I scored 0 in interpersonal. :p so I didn't ruin the pattern of aspires scoring low in that area, yay.

Some people like the visual display of information, rather than numbers or text. It is a more sensory way of presenting the information. Mind you, I have written graph software, so graphing the results seems natural to me.

What I don't see the use of is multiplying the scores by 10. Why not just talk about the scores as 0 to 10? Adding a zero to the end of every score does not add any extra information.

I understand visual information. I'm very visual myself. I just didn't see what further insight this particular graph would show.

Usually graphs show how trends change over time. Say, fertility rates from 1950 to 2012, to see whether it's increased or decreased or jumped.

But this graph doesn't have that kind of use. Maybe all I ge get out of it is how many highs I have compared to lows, but in this case a pie chart would be a better idea.

Yeah I also don't get the multiplying by 10.

I think the multiplication by ten was to turn a single digit scoring into a percentage . . . which is still weird.

I turned in my paper based off this test today and I hope I get a good score. I have problems over extending paper information, which my friends find strange because I can never seem to give short answers when I talk, but when I type I really get "to the point" and I did not feel there was 1,000 words to be said about the test and three types of intelligences of Gardner's theory.

Sorry, you're right.

It was Gazelle - immediately under your post - who scored 50 for Interpersonal. I was having difficulty scrolling through the posts and saw your name and then her scores. My mistake.

If this conversation had occurred between two of my NT friends they would have argued a great deal, especially because "of being wrong" thing. I wonder why people take stuff so out of proportion . . . but I digress!
