Self-Esteem Test

I took a self-esteem test and I scored an 80%. The results say that according to this test, you have high self-esteem. You recognize your inner value an it shows in your personal life, relationships and career/ school success. I definitely agree with this. I am happy with my life and am trying to be successful.

Anxiety Test

Today in class we talked about how we communicate. How we feel in group discussions and meetings. The categories were: Group Discussion, Meetings, Interpersonal Communication, and Public Speaking. In this test we were scored on how we feel in each of these subjects. I scored a 7, 8, 10, 20. This means I am comfortable with group discussion, meetings, interpersonal communication. But I am not very good with public speaking. I get nervous when I have to talk in front of people. If I prepare well and practice I think I can do better.
