Hi there yakiniku_lover. I think you're probably Tactical. Unfortunately, there really isn't enough elaboration on the questions, particularly your strengths and weaknesses, for me to determine if your personality would be a good fit for the community as a whole.

I feel that for now, it would be best that you remain a Civilian. Please consider fleshing out your application and completing the unanswered Q17, then re-apply next semester (in a few months).

Got to agree with Inspired_Ideas I'm afraid :/

Your answers are a little on the short side and the fact you didn't answer question 17...

I'm going to vote Civilian I'm afraid because I can't really judge which would be the best track for you. Really sorry.

I hope you'll have another go at the application and re-apply next round.

You had some very intriguing answers, but overall, I just couldn't get a clear enough sense of who you are. So, I'm going to vote Civilian for now, but I hope that you will take some time and flesh out your answers a bit, and reapply next semester.

Spock is my least favorite character only in that I doubt I would get along with him. He is cool and attempts to make every decision based on logic. Not every question can be answered with logic, sometimes it takes a passion to overcome an obstacle. Something that Spock lacks at times.This was one answer that really made me feel like I was getting a sense of who you were. Your reasons for disliking Spock tell me something about you. I got ideas of what tracks might or might not be appropriate from there, but the rest of your application didn't quite have enough to figure it out. You left question 17 on the prime directive blank... Your answers to the Kobayashi Maru were hard to follow... all of the questions on here are important because they tell us about who you are, how you react to ( ... )

Hey Yakiniku_lover! Unfortunately, I'm going to vote Civilian because you haven't really elaborated. If you plan to reapply I'd recommend explaining why. For example, while you answered Q11&12, without explaining why these are your strengths and weaknesses, you're missing half the question. You're opinion on why these traits matter and what exactly you define them as are as important as what they actually are. And as others have noted, you never explained Q17.

Without knowing your motivation and reasoning behind your answers, it is extremely difficult to really understand your potential for any track. For example, why is being a good speaker a strength? 'Cause it gets you out of trouble, it smooths over trouble for friends, it lets you control the situation, or perhaps it's because you know first impressions matter? It's this reasoning behind why you chose that as your answer that lets us see your tract. Good Luck!

Civilian.

Unfortunately I have to agree with everyone else - there's not nearly enough information here for me to place you appropriately. I hope you expand upon your answers, fill the blanks in, and reapply next semester :)
