This test is beyond worthless. Please don’t stress about it. My kid had just finished 200 hours of direct service to the elderly and unhoused and he got the lowest score on social engage,ent.

Yeah I’m going to second the other comment by saying the character snapshot really doesn’t matter. All of mine were at highest developing so it just looked like

My kid had to send character snapshot in to one of her schools last year. Her profile looked pretty emergent, but it didn’t make any difference. She still got in.

She had very solid recommendations. I suspect the Snapshot is a backup for students with generic recommendations from busy teachers.
