How do you proceed from here?<\/td>\n | a. Choose a prompt and begin working on a thesis immediately. Better to get it out of the way!<\/td>\n | \u039f\u00a0Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. Read over the prompts and let them sink in for a week or so. You’ll still have one more week to finish the assignment, right?<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. Read the prompts and maybe start playing around with ideas, but wait to really start writing until the day before. You swear it’s all in your head somewhere!<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. Definitely last. You’ll wait until everyone else has done their work, so you can make sure you are not duplicating efforts. Whatever, this is why you hate group work.<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | 2<\/td>\n | You are working on a group assignment that requires you to split up responsibilities with three other classmates. When would you typically finish your part?<\/td>\n | a. First. Then you’re done and don’t have to worry about it. Plus it could give you time in case you want to tweak anything later.<\/td>\n | \u039f Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. After one or two of the others have submitted their materials to the group, but definitely not last. You wanted to see how they approached it first.<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. Maybe last, but definitely before the assignment due date and hopefully before any of the other group members ask about it.<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. Definitely last. You’ll wait until everyone else has done their work, so you can make sure you are not duplicating efforts. Whatever, this is why you hate group work.<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | 3<\/td>\n | Your instructor just shared the instructions for your next assignment and you read them but don’t quite understand what he’s asking for in a certain part. What would you probably do?<\/td>\n | a. Send the instructor an email that afternoon. When he doesn’t respond that night, email him again. This is your worst nightmare\u2014you just want to know what he wants!!<\/td>\n | \u039f Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. Send him an email asking for clarification, giving yourself enough time to wait for his response and then complete the assignment. Better to be safe than sorry.<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. Try to figure it out for yourself. You’re pretty sure what he’s trying to say, and you’ll give it your best shot.<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. Don’t say anything until after the assignment is due. Other people in the class felt the same way too, probably!<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | 4<\/td>\n | The course you are taking requires you to post in a weekly discussion forum by Sunday night each week so the class can talk about everyone’s posts on Monday. When do you submit your posts?<\/td>\n | a. Tuesday night, after the first day of class that week. Then it’s out of the way.<\/td>\n | \u039f Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. Thursday or Friday night. You want to let the week’s discussion sink in a little so you can collect your thoughts.<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. Sunday night. You always forget during the weekend!<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. Monday at 3 AM. That still counts as Sunday night, right?<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | 5<\/td>\n | You have an important assignment due Monday morning, and you have a social\/work\/family obligation that will keep you busy for most of the weekend. It is now the Wednesday before the assignment is due. How would you approach this dilemma?<\/td>\n | a. You already finished it yesterday, the day it was assigned. Done!<\/td>\n | \u039f Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. You tell yourself that you’ll finish it by Friday night, and you manage this by chipping away at it over those 3 days. \u2026Little. By. Little.<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. You tell yourself that you’ll finish it by Friday night, so you can have your weekend free, but you still have a little left to do on Sunday\u2014no big deal.<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. You tell yourself that you’ll take the weekend off, then stay up late on Sunday or wake up early on Monday to finish it. It’s not a final or anything, and you have a life.<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | 6<\/td>\n | You have to read 150 pages before your next class meeting. You have 4 days to do so. What would you most likely do?<\/td>\n | a. 150 pages divided by 4 days means\u2026 a little less than 40 pages a day. You like to chunk it this way because then you’ll also have time to go over your notes and highlights, and come up with questions for the instructor.<\/td>\n | \u039f Early bird<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | b. 150 pages divided by\u2026well … 2 days (because it’s been a long week), means 75 pages a day. Totally doable.<\/td>\n | \u039f Balancing act<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | c. 150 pages, the day before it is due. You did this to yourself, it’s fine.<\/td>\n | \u039f Pressure cooker<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | d. How much time does it take to skim the text for keywords and\/or find a summary online?<\/td>\n | \u039f Improviser<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n | Which of the four basic time-management personality types did you select the most?
