3. Interpretation
Personally, the most surprising aspect of the result is how
homogenous my intelligences were in comparison to the
disparities I expected. My opinion of the test itself, however,
is that it fails to assess an objective measure of intelligence.
Rather, it measures a person’s propensities and personal
disposition when confronting an issue of ambiguous
relationship to cognitive ability. The questions were so vague
and tangential that I expect a scientifically unacceptable
degree of imprecision. I am comparatively introspective in
relation to the majority of my schoolmates, and am negligibly
affected by social isolation. I am relatively apathetic towards
kinaesthetic participation, but am not apprehensive in
admiring those who show superlative faculty in this field. My
“intelligence” in visual/spacing surprised me the most, since I
have a striking paucity of skill in creating aesthetics.
4. Consciousness & the Two-
Track Mind (Intrapersonal
Intelligence)
I was interested in this chapter because my
dreams always feel extremely profound.
I am very contemplative in general, as
exemplified by my score in intrapersonal
intelligence.
“For in that sleep of death, what dreams
may come…”
5. Learning (Spatial
Intelligence)
I found our nervous system’s subtle
influences upon our perception to be
interesting.
One of the only chapters with any
relevancy towards vision and spatial
comprehension.
I appreciate most non-abstract art since I
consider the “abstract” as a semantic
rather than aesthetic quality.
6. Learning(Naturalistic
Intelligence)
This is what it comes down to,
ultimately: The chapter has the most
pictures of animals in their natural
environments: robins, dogs, dolphins,
chimps, penguins, and chickens. I
dislike portrayals of animals in lab
conditions, for the same reason I dislike
seeing a tree on fire.
I like plants and I raise a lot of them.

Editor's Notes
My results on this multiple intelligence test show that I scored between 20 to 8 on 8 fields, where the maximum value for a single category is arbitrarily 25. From most to least, I scored 20 in intrapersonal, 19 in visual/spacial, 18 in naturalistic, 17 in musical, 16 in interpersonal, 15 in logical and linguistics, and 9 in kinesthetics
