**Part 2:**
==**Personally, I enjoyed taking the second test much more. The questions were more appropriate and easier to understand and answer. Also, unlike the first test, the second one gave you chooses on individual questions. The first test made you answer two questions with one answer. I found this to be more challenging and I believe effected my score. Also, the results on the second test seemed to be how I would perceive myself as well. The fist test gave me results that did not really seem to describe my personality.**==

**Part 4:**
==**Scientist now are beginning to move from the Myers-Briggs test to the Big five. Although the MBTI is the most popular test used, the articles starts that it may not be the best to determine career choice and personality. The validity of the test is questioned by many scientist and psychologist. Scientist that have studied the MBTI state that using the test could show people false information or not exactly accurate stats. Though, it is sciences norm test, they want to use a test that is better qualified. “The five-factor model provides an alternative basis for interpreting MBTI findings within a broader, more commonly shared conceptual framework.” (PubMed). They believe that using the Big 5 will show people more accurate scores that can increase the success of this test. Which is the whole purpose for using this testing method, right? Just because something has been around for a long time and has seemed to be working, does not necessarily mean they can not give another option a try. What is best for the people using the test is what is most important. People trying to figure out career choices need a successful test they can use to evaluate where they should be.**==
