<p>Notable quotes:
"(The strengths of perceivers, such as flexibility and tendency to avoid premature closure in problem
solving, may provide them with compensatory advantages in research, a hypothesis well worth testing.)"</p>

<p>"The only significant attitude difference observed between thinkers and feelers was that as seniors,
thinkers were more inclined than feelers to go to graduate school (53% vs. 27%) (Table 13). A
predictable but not statistically significant difference was that feelers attached greater importance than
thinkers to doing socially important/beneficial work (Table 14)."</p>

<p>"More judgers than perceivers found lectures extremely helpful to their learning (Table 10), with
the differences early in the curriculum being statistically significant. This result is consistent with type
theory, considering the high level of structure associated with lectures. An interesting type difference was
that 28% of the judgers and only 5% of the perceivers in the senior year believed they did more than their
fair share in group work, while 13% of the judgers and 29% of the perceivers believed they did less than
their fair share. Whether these different beliefs were justified is an intriguing but unanswerable question."</p>

<p>MY HYPOTHESES:</p>

<h2>Positive correlation between grades and sensing in school, negative correlation (as found) between grades and sensing in college. Sensing students will have the greatest difficulty adjusting to college, intuitives will love it.</h2>

<p>Thoughts of my Myers-Briggs Type"</p>

<p>Thinking over Feeling is my strongest trait by far.
Perceiving over Judging is second strongest
Then Introvert over Extrovert</p>

<p>But Sensing versus Intuitive is very sketchy still. I seem to be more intuitive in easier classes, more sensing in harder classes. not the best of things. Going as far as visiting the course webpages of other university websites - very sensing. In an easier class, I'd be bored if there was enough memorization - may have more to do with P than with S.</p>

<p>Main thing is, that there is no measure of laziness. Period. yes, I hypothesize a positive correlation between perceiving and laziness, but not an especially strong one. We NEED A MEASURE OF IT!!</p>

<p>What of LePore's class? Hmm. Different from math/science. In that case, I would have preferred more flexibility in finding research articles, (very P) and I love research articles too (Very S). Devising hypotheses? When they are within the limits, not really. But out of the limits, I love to do that (very NP)</p>

<p>SIMUW: Definitely more S than others - that really hurt my performance.</p>

<p>Previous classes: yeah, sensing was definitely a huge boon.</p>

<p>AP Self-Study: This is where Intuition dominated. ROFL!111.</p>
