Step 2: Score Your Responses
Do the following to score your responses:
- Score the responses on each page. On each page of responses, go from top to bottom
and add the number of “L”s you fi lled in.! en write that number in the “Page Score”
box at the bottom of the page. Go on to the next page and do the same there. - Determine your primary interest area. Which Page Score has your highest score: R, I,
A, S, E, or C? Enter the letter for that personality type on the following line.
My Primary Personality Type:
You will use your Primary Personality Type fi r s t to explore careers. (If two Page Scores are
tied for the highest scores or are within 5 points of each other, use both of them for your

! A = Artistic
! S = Social
! E = Enterprising
