Make sure your results have been accurately assessed by using a calculator to add together your points for each of the seven types of intelligence. The most popular version is the test that has seventy items, with ten items regarding each of the seven types of intelligences. Each item is rated on a scale from 1 (meaning "mostly disagree") to 4 ("mostly agree"). A score close to 40 implies this is a great strength, while a score close to 10 implies a weakness.
Locate each of your seven scores for each type of intelligence and rearrange them on a sheet of paper, listing the highest score and corresponding intelligence at the top and the lowest score at the bottom.
Create a bar graph using this data, especially if one of your high scores is for "Spatial-Visual" intelligence. Draw your "x" and "y" axis, then include eight additional horizontal lines above the "x" line and divide the "x" line into seven sections. Label each of the horizontal lines as 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 to the left of the "y" axis. Label each of the seven intelligences into the seven sections beneath the "x" axis. Create a bar for each intelligence that reaches up into the "y" axis to the appropriate score.
Pay attention to the distribution of your scores using either the numerical scores or the bar graph that you have created. Note whether most of your scores are around the middle (between 20 and 30), or whether half your scores are above 30 while the other half are below 20. This will tell you whether you have well-rounded intelligence or if you are more of a specialist.
Note your top two or three intelligences along with your bottom two or three. These will be the scores that are noticeably higher or lower than the other scores. For example, you may have scored 37 on "Musical" and 35 on "Interpersonal," but scored only 15 on "Linguistic" and "Bodily-Kinesthetic." Consider how these traits manifest in your daily life.
Conceptualize how to use your areas of strength to lend ability to your areas of weakness. Using the example above, a person with great interpersonal intelligence but weaker linguistic intelligence may benefit from studying languages in a group setting where she can connect with other humans. This same person, who has great musical ability and wants to get into shape, could choose an activity such as dance instead of a sport so that she can employ her rhythm and artistic expression.
