How to read your interest results

Understand the starting point

Your answers describe activities that appealed to you today. Each direction has two original prompts scored from 0 to 4; the displayed total is out of 8. It is not a percentile, an ability score or a comparison with other students.

Look more closely

Look at the wording of the prompts behind a higher total. Ask whether you have tried those activities or are responding to an appealing idea. Ties are kept visible, and an equal profile does not produce a forced winner. Low scores may reflect limited exposure or your current preferences.

Choose a next step

Choose a small experiment from one or two directions and collect real evidence. Revisit your reflections after the activity. The questionnaire is an editorial self-reflection tool, not a validated psychometric instrument, diagnosis or admissions assessment.
