Die Klasse 7F hat in einigen Englischstunden unter der Leitung von Frau Waalkens einen personality test erstellt. Zuerst haben die Schüler und Schülerinnen sich insgesamt 23 Fragen mit überwiegend 3 Antwortmöglichkeiten zum Thema competitive, also Ehrgeiz und Leistungsorientation in verschiedenen Situationen überlegt. Jede Antwortmöglichkeit hat eine bestimmte Punktzahl. Diese wurden später dann zusammengezählt. In der Auswertung mit verschiedenen Punktabschnitten kann man erlesen, wie leistungsorientiert man ist. Die Auswertungstexte hat die Klasse in kleinen Gruppen erarbeitet, die danach zusammengetragen wurden. Ihr könnt gerne den Test einmal ausprobieren. Then you find out how competitive you are!

Personality test – How competitive are you? – Here are your results
Not competitive at all! (22-34 points)
You are not competitive at all. You don’t push yourself and you don’t want to win all the time, because you don’t care about winning. You are happy if your friends win and are successful and you probably don’t' like to fight or to compete with your friends or other people.
Your friends like you for that reason, but it may be that you are a bit too laid back and it may also be that you don't have very good marks at school, because it isn't very important to you and you don’t push yourself enough.
Marks in school are important and if a person doesn't study so much the marks are bad.
You could push yourself a bit more and you shouldn't be too laid back in competitions.
Be much more competitive in school, but stay the way you are!
Somewhat competitive (35-45 points)
Sometimes you are competitive. That means, if something is really important, you push yourself to win. But if it is not important you just don't care.
You are somebody who is somewhat competitive and sometimes jealous, but often very friendly. You are focused on yourself and able to defend yourself. That is good for everyday situations. You don’t like it so much when you are not the winner. That's very good! Because actually you just have to push yourself if it’s important.
Our advice for you is: don’t be jealous and enjoy life. But you could also take things, which are not so important a bit more seriously.
Competitive (46-56 points)
You are competitive. You often like to win first price or be the best. You probably have good marks. You feel proud when you win. Sometimes you really push yourself, especially in things you are good at, but you can also be happy for your friends’ success. That’s great!
Very competitive! (57-69 points)
You are very competitive. You push yourself all the time. You must be better than other people, because you always want to be the best in everything and you want to know everything. When other people win you aren’t happy, but when you win you are proud of yourself - and you take it to heart if you don’t win.
It is great that you know what you want and you have good marks in school, because you're competitive and you study a lot. However, sometimes it is hard to be so competitive, because you get on other people’s nerves.
You should relax. You mustn’t take it personally when you don’t win. It isn't important to be the best in everything. It would be nice if you could be happy for your friends’ success as well. You may be happier if you don’t push yourself so much. Nobody is perfect!
