AIESEC Strengths Research

There's this test that's being done on AIESECers to test their strengths. There's a list of 24 strengths and according to how you do in the test, you can see which of these 24 strengths are the strongest in you. I came across it before going to IC and did it...little did I know that the guy who created this test was the guy I was just about to meet in IC. He turned out to be the Chair of IC 2006 haha! He was an awesome guy, really enjoyed his stories and the way he saw the world was just so inspiring. Here are the results of my test, these are my top 5 strengths out of the 24 strengths of the test...what do you think? Accurate?

Your Top Strength: Kindness and Generosity
You are kind and generous to others, and you are never too busy to do a favor. You enjoy doing good deeds for others, even if you do not know them well.

Your Second Strength: Judgment, critical thinking, and open-mindedness
Thinking things through and examining them from all sides are important aspects of who you are. You do not jump to conclusions, and you rely only on solid evidence to make your decisions. You are able to change your mind.

Your Third Strength: Honesty, authenticity, and genuineness
You are an honest person, not only by speaking the truth but by living your life in a genuine and authentic way. You are down to earth and without pretense; you are a "real" person.

Your Fourth Strength: Humor and Playfulness
You like to laugh and tease. Bringing smiles to other people is important to you. You try to see the light side of all situations.

Your Fifth Strength: Citizenship, Teamwork, and Loyalty
You excel as a member of a group. You are a loyal and dedicated teammate, you always do your share, and you work hard for the success of your group.

My 24th strength, which is like the bottom of the pile, was bravery and valor...which I see as too accurate. I am such a chicken! Not brave at all haha. That's something I need to work on big time.
