Reflection : This career test is pretty accurate and its descriptions towards me are mostly right. My first option is to become a marine biologist since I like sea creatures pretty much but I also leave my options open to becoming a dentist, doctor or business administrastor. And suprisingly the result of this career test shows the real possible career paths for me. I will take the result of this career test as a serious reference while choosing my degree in university.
