CHAPTER 2

What Is Your
Personality Type?

Before you can figure out where you’re going, it helps to understand who you are. With the help of some quick and easy exercises in this chapter and the two that follow, you’ll take a look at yourself and what matters most to you. You’ll examine your priorities from several different angles:

• Your personality type

• Your favorite high school courses

• Your skills

Each time you draw conclusions about your priorities, you’ll get immediate feedback in terms of college majors and related careers that you should consider.

Then, in “Your Hot List of College Majors and Careers” in Chapter 5, you’ll put together the suggestions from all three factors to create a Hot List of college majors that you should explore in Chapter 6.
