In response to the many lobohias and myself who have taken the color test, i feel i should say something about this kinda online tests which i just learnt from my 1st module in school especially after Mei Shuan asked me how accurate i thought it was.

Ook, probably no one took the test results seriously but just wana bring about more awareness on these kinda online tests.

Firstly, most of the personality, values, skills or any other type of tests on the internet and which can be taken online are only level one assessment tools. This meaning, the test CANNOT be taken seriously at all and doesn't provide you with an accurate description of whatever you are measuring. Try not to let this test affect you as it doesn't describe you fully as a person because, i believe that a person has the capacity for change at any given moment.

Another point to note that for this particular test is that it can be manipulated. Meaning if i were to repeat the test about like 64 times and just choose every different combination of every different colour, i would be able to predict or 'pick' the results that i want.

It also doesn't show how it measures or interpret your results, all these are computer-generated and i've learnt through my lessons that tests which are manually scored by a professional is always preferred to having a computer-generated one.

So, to end my boring talk, if any of you ever really wants to have an accurate, reliable and valid description of your temperaments, skills or values, go to a certified professional trained in administering the test. =D

Have a great weekendddddd!
