It is heartening to hear that you are pro-actively planning your career and have arrived at a conclusion about your next steps. This is also a good time to test the level of your determination by reviewing the underlying factors that lead you to arrive at your career choice. A psychometric test can be a useful tool for this analysis exercise. I have seen that people like you who have a concrete decision are able to better utilize a psychometric test because they have a reference point to relate to. Fine tuning your decision and being aware of your interest and aptitude will help you chart your career path with confidence. Interests and attitudes are important pieces of your overall personality.

You will agree that family or societal pressure often pushes us to try deciding everything about career too early. Also, at times, we surrender to the strong temptation of money or status associated with designations and industries. If either of these resonates with you, you must re-assess your decision and take an informed opinion.

Let us assume that your decision was correct in the first place. The psychometric test report will add more weight to your decision and you will then approach every challenge with a strong sense of determination. This attitude itself will go a long way in propelling you forward in your chosen professional as well as personal life.   

Now, think of the other extreme case – your decision was misinformed and way off the mark. The test will throw some interesting suggestions that may sound counter-intuitive to you but with a counsellor’s help, you can understand why those recommendations came up. At this stage also, you can either accept or reject the test report if you do not feel convinced.

As you can see, not taking a psychometric test can be costly if your perception has been influenced by imagination instead of hands-on experience. On the other hand, appearing for such a test needs a small investment of time and money with no conditions attached!
