MBTI Discussion

This past Sunday we had a retreat for the Hixson Peer Mentor Program. The main focus of the dicussion was about the MBTI. MBTI is a survey given that can help you see what kind of learner you are. This can be helpful to know when trying to pair leaders and for us individually to improve study habits. The first part of the results tells you if you have a preference for extraversion or introversion. My result was that I had a pretty significant preference for extraversion, meaning i draw my energy from the extern and out things. The second sections was between Sensing and Intuition. I have a preference for Sensing which means i prefer to look at the facts instead of theory which is very true. Third part was between Thinking and Feeling. I have a preference for thinking which means i try to make the logical decision based on the situation. This doesn't mean that I don't care what people think though. Lastly was a preference between judging and perceiving. I was a far on the perceiving side as possible, which explains why I'm doing this post the night before I have to turn it in. This just means I like to be spontaneous and often work under pressure. I thought it was very interesting that a lot of the engineering students in the class like myself ended up in the ESTP category. Overall I don't think I changed too much from my freshman year, but it was a good refresher on the survey and the meaning or the survey.
