I had to click the "answer more questions to improve my results" button once, but now it's pretty good. Never mind that I think writer should be above artist. I guess teacher, which I've considered for so long, has dropped off the list. But I'm not surprised.
I've never really considered #12 and #16 as a real career, but I still think it should be higher than 12 and 16.
