Info

I am interested in ____ and ____.

Complete the sentence below by filling in the blank with TWO things you are interested in.

Now, think about the question: What are you good at? The answer to this question is likely different than your interests. This questsion tells you what your abilities are.

Abilities

An ability is a task or skill you can currently do. For example, if you are reading this lesson, you have the “ability” to read. Abilities change over time, usually with instruction and practice. In school, you will develop new abilities and strengthen existing abilities.

Basic Skills & Abilities

Select one or more of your abilities below!

HOT SPOT

Like abilities, aptitudes are tasks or skills. However, they are the tasks and skills that you have not yet developed. The dictionary defines aptitude as a natural ability to do something or to learn something. In other words, with instruction and practice, aptitudes are the abilities you could have in the future.

APTITUDES

During your high school career, it is possible that you will have your aptitude tested. A very common aptitude test is one that is taken between 10th and 12th grade called the “Scholastic Aptitude Test” (also known as the SAT). This test score is used to help determine your readiness for college.

APTITUDES

APTITUDE Tests

For example:

• If you have the ability to solve math problems quickly, you might have an aptitude for engineering.
• If you have good eye–hand coordination abilities, you might have an aptitude for playing sports.
• If you have musical ability, you might have an aptitude for learning languages.

Aptitude tests can give you a general idea of your future abilities based on your current academic strengths and weaknesses. However, aptitude tests cannot accurately predict your future success. Aptitudes are not permanent. They can change over time as you develop skills and address weaker areas.

Self Awareness

Self-awareness is an understanding of your feelings, character traits, interests, and goals, and it is key to having a good idea of who you are as a person now & who you want to be in the future. Knowing where you are on your journey helps you track your progress toward meeting your personal and career goals. In addition to self-awareness, you will participate in several self-assessment activities each year, which will help you evaluate things like your learning styles, skills, interests, values, and personality traits. The first step in self-assessment for career exploration is to figure out your own Holland Code.
