Musical: Poem on Life in Maycomb

Maycomb County, old and sleepy,

home to many walks of life.

Maycomb County, old and sleepy,

home of racism and despise.

But there was one wise lawyer,

whose name goes by Atticus Finch.

He harbors no discrimination,

Neither do his children, not to an inch.

There was a scary place,

whom everyone found taboo

It was the Radleys'

that lived a stranger known as Boo.

No one dared to walk up there,

a Negro especially.

For the fear of Boo,

and Mr Radley.

School was a weird place,

With Burris Ewell arriving only for the first day.

And Scout was punished,

Just for knowing how to read an essay.

Everyone was discriminated against Negroes,

But Calpurnia was lucky,

she had Atticus's support,

and lived quite happily.

To put a long story short,

Maycomb County is more than meets the eye.

With many more incidences coming up,

Such as Tom Robinson's trial.

Multiple Intelligences test

I feel that this multiple intelligence test, a set of 40 questions designed to determine how well you are are inclined towards 8 different aspects of intelligence, is not entirely correct to determine exactly what kind of a person you may be. This is because this test is a computer generated program that gives answers to whatever order you may have put your answers in. This way, many people could feign the answers and be the perfect man on Earth that excels in all aspects of intelligence. Confidence, here, plays a vital issue as to whether one scores well in this test.

For example, if you are not very confident of what you may or may not be doing, you might put down the answer that you are not very proficient in that aspect of intelligence. On the contrary, if you are too confident to the extend that you become egotistical, you might put down that you excel in all aspects, which of course, also results in an inaccurate result. Therefore this test is very subjective as to who takes it.

If organisations want to hire or evaluate a person's character, they would mostly use this test to determine their various aspects of intelligence. Once again, this test would be inaccurate if placed in different situations. In one, a it could be that a person is being accessed to see if he would be hired into the company. A common trait in most humans are that they want to be better than others. Hence, the person might purposely associate all the best answers to himself, in the process, making himself look good in front of the employer, resulting in inaccuracy once again.

Hence, this test is not entirely correct as people can just fake answers (I was also tempted to). I think this kind of tests should be performed with a person of more qualifications that will produce results of greater accuracy.
