Your Dominant Intelligence is Logical-Mathematical Intelligence

You are great at finding patterns and relationships between things. Always curious about how things work, you love to set up experiments. You need for the world to make sense - and are good at making sense of it. You have a head for numbers and math ... and you can solve almost any logic puzzle. You would make a great scientist, engineer, computer programmer, researcher, accountant, or mathematician.

What Kind of Intelligence Do You Have?

The people who write these things have no idea what accountants do. I would be an absolutely awful accountant. Most mathematicians make awful accountants. We make much better lion tamers.

But in general, I buy it! I did answer your questions, BTW.

"We make much better lion-tamers."

Apart from the uni-ped thing?

And curse you for making me meme

Yeah, but accountancy is all about logic (really!).

At a certain level I'd agree with that but then I'm the sort of person who has debates with accountants about whether a GL is logically just a particular view of a financial database. 90% of the accountants I have known are more or less blindly following a set of rules and are pretty much incapable of any degree of abstraction whereas 90% of the mathematicians I have known are happy to prove that books can in theory be balanced but don't care enough about particular instances to see whether they actually do.

It's all about sums, innit?

I got "linguistic". What a surprise.

Mathematicians tend to be strong on the logic and with a very clear focus on finding a specific solution. I suppose arguably accountants share some of those features - but it's mainly the person who designed this knows only that numbers are involved in both.

Place a tame lion in the cage. Capturing a wild lion is now an exercise for the student.
