Types of Intelligence

Seven types of intelligence are fairly widely understood these days. Whereas IQ tests really only look at logical reasoning, numerical pattern understanding, English usage (a bit) and spatial reasoning, this simple questionnaire looks at our abilities in various seven intelligence areas to determine the most significant one. It doesn't give a chart with them all - indeed I'm not sure if it does question for all of them - but I guess it's about right that my primary area is linguistic.




Your Dominant Intelligence is Linguistic Intelligence



You are excellent with words and language. You explain yourself well.
An elegant speaker, you can converse well with anyone on the fly.
You are also good at remembering information and convicing someone of your point of view.
A master of creative phrasing and unique words, you enjoy expanding your vocabulary.

You would make a fantastic poet, journalist, writer, teacher, lawyer, politician, or translator.
