THE BIG FIVE PERSONALITY TEST

I found the Big Five Personality Test somewhat accurate. I would say that it was spot-on in the extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism dimensions. My highest score was on the negative emotionality/neuroticism and I would say that it describes me well due to the fact that I worry a lot. I am always anxious and somehow I feel like I am running out of time and wating to give up. I also tend to have negative moods all the time and I always feel empty. This affects my schoolwork a lot because I feel as though I have no motivation to complete and turn them in. Not only does it affect my schoolwork, but also my relationships as well. People around me tend to feel negative too when I feel negative and down, so I drain their energy and it makes it harder for them to be with me. On the other hand, I find the conscientiousness and open-mindedness a little bit off. Regarding the conscientiousness, I don’t think I decide haphazardly. I think about my actions quite carefully and think about their effects on my future. Though I sometimes miss deadlines or wait until the last minute to turn it in, I wouldn’t say that I am negligent. As a matter of fact, I stress about it until I get it done, it’s just that sometimes I do not manage my time wisely. The only positive part about me stressing about things is it pushes me do get them done so I can get rid of that stress.
