How you see yourself may not always align with how others perceive you. This question serves as a test of your self-awareness and your emotional intelligence. How you answer will inform your interviewer of your honesty, sincerity, consistency, and your attention to detail. Reflect upon the positive comments your friends, professors, or peers have made about you in the past, and be discerning with what you share, ensuring your response is aligned with the rest of your narrative, and complementary to the school's community, values, and culture. Ensure that what you share is sincere and consistent with the other responses you provide. The more consistent your answers are from one question to the next, the more reliable and credible you will seem.

As mentioned in the introductory article, "each question will have a designated amount of prep and response time." On their platform, their clients can adjust "the response time, which is how long an applicant has to answer the question. The default is set to 60 seconds for video questions, and 300 seconds (5 minutes) for written questions. You are able to customize the amount of time an applicant has to prepare before answering the question. The default prep time for video questions is 30 seconds, and written questions have no prep time."

"I've frequently been described as cheerful, happy-go-lucky, and have been complimented for my positive attitude. I don't always feel positive, but my resting face has a bit of a smile to it, and I feel fortunate that people often want to be around me, which is nice. But, I would say that I don't see myself as much of a quitter, and prescribe to the philosophy that where there is a will, there is a way. So maybe that is part of what others see in me as well."
