a. I have learned that the career that I had choose  matches my skills. However, some results surprised me a lot. I realized that I have more Social skills than Leadership. I will definitely rethink the field where I would like to work. I want to be an owner of a small company. I just did not chose the field yet.

b. I did not change my goals. I still want to become an owner of my company even if my social skills higher than entrepreneurship.

c. It helps me to understand that I need to work with people and that I could not just sit at the corner and be an accountant. I hope I will find what I really like!

a. After completing the survey, I learned that I am more of an artistic person.The result also said I’m a practical person and love working in groups. I think that it is partially true. It did little bit change thought about what I want to do in the future.

b. I always wanted to major something related to business, but in the survey; the results is something so opposite from business. I wanted to do business because I always thought that business will lead me to having a good job. However I realized that it is important to do something you like.

c. Focus 2 help me realize what I’m good at and what I’m bad at. I think it is important for me to truly find what I desire in the future and take a strong interest in something so that it will make it into my career.

a. Focus 2 helped me confirm my major choice which is finance and it clarified to me that I would actually fit in the said work environment.It also provided me with average annual income for my career which is a good think to know.

My group chose the theme of food and food festivals because we all love trying out new cuisines. Food festival articles in NYtimes provided a lot of information about different food festivals around New York City. It was really helpful because its hard to find a good place to try some new food.

My group chose to use Urban Wars as our topic. The concept of the Chemical weapon attack in Syria was mostly discussed because it happens to be the most recent form of war (Civil War).  Being students it is beyond necessary for us to engage in politics and worldly affairs. We’re are merely the future of politics and what better than to be able to involve ourselves and give people our opinions on the issues of everyday.

Our group select food for our topic was because food was our daily life thing. Everyone wants to be health. Food is a way to be health. It also had big impact on our life. I chose the radiation affect the baby’s formula because of the nuclear meltdown. I wanted to show the importance of food impact. Also, Baruch College sells food such as pizza and sushi.

My group’s new york times concept topic was on food. I chose the articles on foreign food inspections and starbucks. I chose the food inspection article because food inspections is part of our health. The meat that are from Canada and other countries go through food inspection to insure they are clean to keep us from getting food poisoned. I chose the starbucks article because everyone loves starbucks. I find it fascinating to see starbucks trying to incorporate other brands into their new stores like a business transactions related to food.

A. After taking the focus 2 test, I am confident to say my major is accounting. I wasn’t unsure before the test of accounting was my major. Now I will do me best and study accounting.

B. I knew my major would be bus admin or accounting. But I wasn’t which field I was more interested in. My senior was telling me how a lot of baruch student are in accounting major that it was hard to get a’s in this field. I begin to wonder if I should pick accounting.

C. Focus 2 helped me make sure that accounting would be something I really like to do.

a.
I learned that I can do more things than I’ve ever imagined. I thought that some of the tasks that I’m capable of doing are irrelevant for my future work. However, these tasks really show how much worth I am. It strengthened my choice of major and my career goals. Now I’ll be more focused towards them.

b.
Results didn’t change anything; I know my major and it will stay the same so far. My previous choices were the same as choices right now.

c.
Well, “Focus 2” is a really nice engine. It helped me little bit to clarify what I have to do step by step in order to fulfill my successful career.

We chose the subject of Syria, because it was for us the most important thing that was going on in the world at that time. If someone could ask at that time about any most popular information on the news, every student at Baruch College would say that there are a news about reports from Syria.
