ADVANTAGES: more accurate in speaking and reading, think carefully before acting
DISADVANTAGES: wait too long to speak, read more slowly, slower in timed test.

29 or less
You are impulsive. You make quick decisions and are willing to gamble that you are right. The lower your score, the more impulsive you are.

ADVANTAGES: more willing to speak in class, faster reading, better in timed test.

DISADVANTAGES: less accurate in speaking and reading, act without thinking enough.

explain why you said that you are the particular type of learner.
