Mostly A's
Politician
You were the one who didn't take any nonsense from anyone. You stood up for your rights, had the courage to stand up in front of a crowd and express yourself and were and are a true leader. You're brimming with energy, initiative, and charisma. You would sacrifice anything, even your relationships, to move ahead and fight your war for justice. You were like the great characters: Abraham Lincoln and BP Koiraila. You have a strong personality – whatever you do is right, or you'll change the entire system to make it be right.

Mostly B's
Artist
You were different. And there can't be a more appropriate word to describe you. You get lost easily but you know what you want – which is to live life fully. You appreciate the smallest details that everyone else misses, but sometimes you can get trapped in your own desires. It doesn't take much to make you fly or hurt you. You join the ranks of Michael Angelo and Leonardo Da Vinci in your past.
 
Mostly C's
Superstar
You were popular and always managed to be the center of attention in a group. You have to get your way – whether it is in gaining success, or having your eggs sunny side up (otherwise it goes into the bin). You are talented and you can charm the wits of anyone. You are ambitious and for you, life is never static – otherwise, you're bored – you need constant change and movement (ahead). You could have been Jimi Hendrix or Mick Jagger.
