Emotional IQ Test

What is your emotional IQ?


This emotional intelligence test consists of two parts; a self-report portion and an ability portion. The test assesses your capacity to recognize your own emotions and those of others; understand how best to motivate yourself; become close to others; and manage your own feelings and those of others. Emotional intelligence contributes a great deal to your potential in life. A poor emotional intelligence can hold a brilliant individual back from achieving his or her goals, while a good EIQ can help someone who might otherwise struggle achieve success in life.





1-Did you agree or disagree wth your score? Why?

My score says that my emotional IQ is excellent, so I loved it, but I don’t agree with any kind of “IQ” test, not intelligence test neither in emotional test. I think we all have different capacities and no one is capable of qualifying and marking us as “bad” or “excellent”. Every person has weak and strong points, and every kind of personality has as much advantages as disadvantages.

2- What are the strenghts/or weaknesses of a test like this?

The strengths of tests like this one are that they don’t forget about the background of the person. At the end, they asked a list of questions that can be really helpful to evaluate a person. One of the biggest weaknesses is that some persons can’t evaluate themselves and their actions well, and say what they think but perhaps they are totally different and other people realizes that. Making another person answer this test for you is not a solution, since they can’t know what you think (and for some answers this is needed).

3- How important do you think having a high IQ might be?

I think having a high IQ is not so important, for the reasons I explained in the first question.
