Big Five Project Personality Analysis

The Big Five Project Personality Test breaks down our personality’s into the five dimensions also known as the ocean model. The ocean model is an acronym for the 5 dimensions; openness to experience/intellect, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. I came into this personality test hoping to get a pretty good representation of who I am but in all honesty in some aspects I got the complete opposite.
I wasn’t expecting much from an online personality test but the results were honestly quite shocking and completely wrong in two of the five of the ocean acronym. First, the openness to experiences/ intellect it had said that “You are somewhat conventional.” I had a great laugh about this one since I’m someone who is always up for an adventure. For an example, I had gone bungee jumping last summer even though I am completely terrified of heights and the idea

of falling I still did it for the rush and the new look on life.

Second, the agreeableness had said that “You find it easy to express irritation with others.” This statement can go both ways I can be level headed, calm, and caring as much as I can flip a switch and tell you how I feel. This test considers that a bad thing putting it long side of being rude, harsh, critical, callous, but in reality its good to have a balance. Now the three I actually agree with were conscientiousness, extraversion, and neuroticism. For conscientiousness it had said that “You probably have a messy desk!” The second I read that and looked up at my desk and saw the pile of books and cloths all over it. I broke into laughter. However, when I read into the category for the lower scorer connected to being disorganized was undependable and negligent. Personally I believe that that is completely false. You can ask anyone who knows me and they will all tell you that I am a complete mess but I am one of the most dependable people you will ever meet. This also made

no sense since I want to help put criminals away witch requires you to be dependable. Next was extraversion, I will not argue with this one at all I am a complete extrovert. Lastly, Neuroticism another one I will not argue with is one either. I may look like I’m calm and collected on the outside but on the inside I feel like I’m going to exploded form over analyzing and worrying that I wont live up to my parent’s expectations.
My first thought when I had taken this was that it was going to be a waste of time but now that I have gone and read all of the levels I now have a better understanding of who I am and how others perceive my personality. Traits that I believed were good or smart to have has shown me how my personality is actual seen.
