That might help you in feeling better about yourself but the recommendations and observations about you will not change much. I will explain why. The Ideal Career Test has been designed as a friendly reflector that is least interested in your memorization capacity or problem-solving speed.
The ICT is more like a face to face interaction. It is easy-paced and is focused on giving every candidate a fair chance to express their feelings and basic capabilities. If you try to master this test by taking it twice or thrice or rush through it quickly, you will defeat the purpose of taking up this test. You are not receiving any standardized score here that you can use for applying to colleges or internships.
In case you feel your performance was hampered by a lack of proper sleep or any other external disturbance, you should definitely retake the test. Otherwise, my suggestion would be to stop unnecessarily worrying about retaking the ICT and use the report to move on to the most critical stage of your decision-making process the debating on top 3 recommendations for you!
Try to understand this by comparing it with most selection tests you know of. You will find that they are purely elimination tests where the purpose is to reject more than 99% candidates based on a narrow set of parameters. They will always have too many questions in a limited time frame to force you on making unintended errors. Unfortunately, it generally leads to a lot of unnecessary frustration and lowering of self-worth among those 99% test-takers. They have to design such tests because of the humongous number of applicants for the limited number of seats available at many Indian colleges.

Wouldn't it be so wonderful if you could lead a life that is not given to you by people or situations around you but the one that you desire from within your heart? I had dreamt of such a life for long and, therefore, took a decision of dropping off my decade-long career in geospatial space and follow my heart. No matter how successful and rewarding my job was, I knew my true calling is connecting and engaging with people. So, I went on to become a certified life coach offering personalised 1-on-1 and group coaching programs to- * To-be professionals not able to decide which course to take next or which skill to acquire that best suits their interest and capability. * Working Professionals who took a break in career but now want to re-start * Working professionals who are discontented with their current position and want to make a move or shift Starting from identifying my clients' needs to establishing goals, I work toward helping them shift their mindset and think bigger so that they can reach their full potential and grow professionally.
