It is important for a student to know his/hers strengths and weaknesses in the education field; knowing where a student is ranked in the classroom can help his/hers performance throughout high school or college. As I assessed myself and my learning style my dominant learning style is SF (sensing-feeling). In the overall data, I was 29.8% SF. Before taking the survey, I thought to myself that the data would end up fairly close between SF and ST. The strength of a SF is that those type of people value long term relationships and interpret other behavior. Personally, I do believe in long term relationships. I have maintained long term relationships within a small circle of friends and plan on keeping those throughout my life. One of the career options within the SF category is a nurse.
