Are You Emotionally Intelligent?-8 30 am Class
With so much emphasis placed on coursework, grades and accolades for accomplishments, interpersonal communication and relationships take second billing. In the business world, however, it is not just about what you know but how you sell it. Can you play nice with others and develop rewarding relationships that will lead you down the path to success? Let's find out. Please take this link to an EQ test on the Discovery Health Website and see how you score when it comes to managing your empathy, communication, nonverbal and criticism skills. Please respond to this post no later than before our next class period on Wednesday, July 9 and tell us how emotionally intelligent you are (you don't have to give your score unless you want to, but you do need to go into detail about where your emotional weaknesses are and the skills you need to further develop to be a more effective communicator). FYI: Professor's score was 122 in case you are interested.

my score was 99 which means im average in the description it says that i am able to deal with my problems, as well as others in a reasonable manner. i do agree with that but i feel that i need to learn how to boost up my confindence.
i scored a 126 which is suposed to be excellent - much higher than average.
The description said that means generally I am able to express my feelings in an appropriate manner.
"optimistic and positive, and adapt well to changed circumstances."
According to the test I interact well with others. I am also capable of building strong long lasting relationships.
I can recognize my weaknesses, and praise my talents=)

Hello!,
My score was 116, which is between
average and high. This means that I am able to express my feelings clearly in appropiate situations. And I adapt well to change circumstances.
Hey!!!
i scored a 98!!
it is in the average range, it states that i am able to deal with my own emotions and those of others in a reasonable effective manner. it also states i haven't taken full advantage of my potential. i highly agree with my score i am able to do all that it states but i know i so much more potential in me. I am going to make it my prerogative to try to strengthen my emotional intelligence. I'll take this quiz at the end of the program and post once again to see the my development in this program. thank you for making me aware of my emotional intelligence and i cannot wai to go to class tomorrow.
I recieved a score of 112.
I am said to be average(sheesh!)
What i learned is that i am essentially able to recognize and deal with my emotions and those of others in a reasonably effective manner. Overall I am a well round happy person.(yay! Go Quanda!!)
However, i am not not taking full advantage of my potential.
To improve thati must learn and practice new skills as well as deal more effectivly with people. I never usually have problems with connecting or rather as to say "deal" with people.
There is always room for improvement and guess what???
I am willing to take that into consideration to improve a more profound and better me.So watch out yall!(smile)
On the Emotional IQ scale I scored an average of 108. It states that I recognize and deal with my own emotions and the emotions of others in a approiate manner. These acts are demonstrated through my ability to relate to others, manage my emotional health, and express my needs. Unfortunately I landed mid-range;therfore, I am not using my full potential. It states I can by learning and experiencing new things, practicing new things,and dealing with people in more effective ways. Doing this will help me build stronger relationships, successfull careers an healthier emotional IQ, and most of all, a happier me! :)
I received a score of 122 which was clasified as excellent, higher than average. I was described as someone who is able to communicate my feelings well. According to my my score I am positive and can endure stress, and be able to bounce back from hard situations. I am able to except and understand my any weakness i have, which allows me to build and approve it. Ultimatly, i am able to cummunicate and get along well with many and my relationships will be solid and long lasting.
While checking out the blog page yesterday, I quickly scanned this article and suddenly saw a link to IQ test. I originally took this test yesterday just for the heck of it. Neglecting to actually take the time to read to read the article that it accompanied, I took the 5-10 minute test in about 3 minutes, saw that i scored 102 and exited the page after only reading the first line of what my results meant. I closed the link so quickly i didn't even bother to inquire whether my score was good or bad.
After hearing in class today that our homework was to actually take the test, I couldn't help but feel happy and excited knowing that I had already done so and thinking about the possibility of no home work for me :D. That attitude quickly turned sour though after realizing that we were also required to explain what our results meant to us.
"I have to do this all over again," was my next thought after realizing that I didn't no what I would say. I didn't escape tonight's homework like I originally thought I so cleverly had done.
After reading the article this time and retaking my test I scored to points lower this time leaving me with a 100 which I learned meant average. Average! I thought is definately not a word used to describe me. "I consider myself to be quite intelligent actually both academically and definately emotionally," I thought.
Suddenly I thought back to something one of my Professors said in yesterday's class, "If you're the type of person that in high school usually did well without having to do much (which I am) you're going to soon realize that college is a place where you find out how smart you are not!"
I didn't believe her then, but I'm quickly becoming a believer.
my score was a 118 which is suppose to be higher than average.i was really suprised to see that my score was high.My description says that i am able to express my feelings clearly and in appropriate situations.it also says that i am a positive person.I agree with my description but there are things of course that can be inproved about me.I love and accept myself so i believe that this makes me a good person. of course there is always room for exellence.i recognize my weaknesses as well as my strengths.this will help to be not only above average but genius.
96....
Avg..
Average means I deal Averagely with my average problems.... But average is good =)... Ill just have to try harder to deal above averagely with my average problems.. Like spending more time sorting them out instead of just tossing them into pre-set problem catagories in my head all willy nilly like =). Hooray.
my score was 101 the description stated that i am able to recognize and deal with my own emotions. i have the ability to relate to others, express my needs, and maintain a satisfactory level of emotional health. way to improve my score is opening up to people and thave better communiction with myself.
My emotional IQ score was 98 which means average. I agree when they say that I am able to deal with my emotions and others around me. I also agree when it says that I need to find effective ways of dealing with people, because I do feel as though I can improve my communication. I don't however agree when it says that i express my needs because I usually don't.
