Self-assessment is a process of identifying a decision that needs to be made, gathering information, taking inventory on related aspects of yourself, searching for insights, and ultimately, using your findings to help you make a decision. It takes each of these steps to understand, appreciate, and maximize the unique potential that you bring.
After moving through this process, it is time to take action. Self-assessment is a significant step of the process of making an informed decision about academics and careers, but it is not the only step.
Combined with the information you gather about the options you are considering, as well as encouragement from your immediate support network, you can begin moving yourself forward with concrete actions.
We are here to assure you that this is rarely a process of complete clarity, as making decisions always involves some level of uncertainty, trial and error, a “leap of faith," however, moving forward will help you reach the next level with new insight.
