 * My highest scores: **
 * Style 1:** **Linguistic** – the ability to use language to describe events, to build trust and rapport, to develop logical arguments and use rhetoric, or to be expressive and metaphoric.


 * Style 6:** **Interpersonal** – the ability to organize people and to communicate clearly what needs to be done, to use empathy to help others and solve problems, to discriminate and interpret among different kinds of interpersonal clues, and to influence and inspire others to work toward a common goal.

I wasn't shocked at all to find these intelligences as my two greatest strengths. Linguistics is an area I have much comfort in, perhaps why I am an English major :). I am an exceptional communicator, getting my points and ideas across in an understandable way to a variety of audiences. Even more so than linguistic's, I feel at home in the category of Interpersonal intelligence. Organization and helping others are two things that have always come very naturally to me.
