Personality Test for Specialty

[Travellpro]

Here is a personality test to see which area of nursing you may fit in with the best. It is 130 questions but it goes pretty quickly. They will ask you the same question multiple times which is normal.

Post your results!

My top three were rheumatology, general internal med, and hematology.

[SuesquatchRN, BSN, RN]

Heh. Emergency.

Med/surg stuff was way down low. There's a shocker.

[athena55, BSN, RN]

My top three:

medical oncology

general surgery

peds (WHAAAT??)

Ha, I spent 15 years in an oncology critical-care unit...Now at a combined intensive-care unit at a MEDCEN

Good one. I cant really see me doing any of the ones it posted top for me. There is no way I would think about plastic surgery.

Old thread but fun thread.

I think I'd enjoy plastic surgery but it's number 20 on my list.

My top five are

1 occupational med 49

2 preventive med 48

3 rheumatology 48

4 med oncology 48

5 hematology 48

Is this because I kept answering that I didn't need to see insta results??

Anyway this is a med specialty survey so it probably doesn't translate to nursing.

[Dorali, BSN, LPN, RN]

Physical medicine & Rehabilitation. (I don't know about that.)

Number 2 was OB/GYN, which sounds a little more like me.

Thanks for posting!

Thanks for posting this website!

My top 3 were:

Oncology

Peds

Psych

I work as a SNE in oncology, am in my clinical rotation for peds, and love both, so when I took this test, I was thrilled! In fact, I got to choose another unit to shadow on today, and I chose Pediatric Hemonc....and loved it! I also passed this site onto the rest of my cohort, so thanks again.
