My score was a 7 on the odd numbers and an 8 on the even numbers. I believe my score is accurate because I think that stress can harm you or hurt you depending on how one handles it. I always try to have my stress help me by working harder to feel more prepared for what is to come in the future. My mindset has helped me with my grades due to stress from classes and making me work harder for an A. It has also helped me with my high school activities because it made me work harder and pull more weight for those around me, and I would not change my stress for anything because it makes me work harder.
I scored and 8 on both the even and odd numbers, and I would say this is an accurate assessment. Stress helps me stay on top of academic endeavors, but it does take a physical toll on my body if I experience too much of it. I believe, like most things, moderation is key. I took finals for two of my classes back in May. One was for Computer Literacy, the other for Composition II. For my computer final, I was so convinced I would fail I completely overstudied due to the stress, but for my composition final, I took my time and wrote out the final assignment calmly. I did far better on the writing assignment than I did on the computer final because I did not stress myself into a hole. It was a helpful and harmful example of how over stress causes me more harm than good, but just enough allows for my prime work to be accomplished.
I got an 11 on the odd numbers and 5 on the even numbers. I unfortunately do believe that this is fairly accurate. I have never handled my stress well. I have a pretty good amount of anxiety and it is easy for me to get stressed out. It is also easy for me to get lost in that stress and start to essentially just "breakdown". I will withdraw and turn to comfort movies and activities all while completely avoiding the source of my stress, including work. This causes me to wait to study until the very last minute, in turn, causing more stress not just in the moment, but afterwards. Hopefully, after reading this I can learn how to use my stress as motivation rather than a source of hindrance. Mallory Forgione
My score was a 9 on the odd numbers and 5 on the even numbers. I would say that these scores represent me very well when it comes to my responses and attitude towards stress. When something stresses me out, I tend to first begin to shut down. It then progresses to spiraling, finding more and more things to stress about and cloud my judgement. But oddly, once this stage of my process is complete, I tend to become very productive. It's almost like a tornado; the storm builds and builds, and once it's complete it destroys everything in its path. The building of the storm is my overwhelmed brain, finding more and more things to worry about. Then once I reach my breaking point, I tackle everything in front of me that needs to get done.
My score was 6 on the odd numbers and 10 on the even numbers. I believe this score is accurate because although I don’t like always being stressed and I think it’s not the best for my health, it is also so helpful for me to get stuff done. I am the type of person that does not know how to function without stressing or worrying about something. In fact, I become bored when I am not stressing. However, I do not think I would be where I am today, academically, if it wasn’t for stress. Stress is how I manage to turn in my best work or stay determined on an assignment I did not manage my time well on.
