Some examples of personality traits would be: kind, energetic, sociable, sympathetic, imaginative.
So you just have to figure out what kind applies to you (you can look up different ones)
I believe you should take a year off and do every prereq you can get at a local college or university. a way to check that would be to go on a computer and pull up the local college, and the college you set your mind to long term. so for instance LTC (long term college) may have a prereq Bio 213 and maybe you LC (local college) has a Bio 217. you would call the LTC and say hey, does your Bio 213 line up with LC Bio 217. Most of the time they will say yes. It saves a LOT of money.
Assertive people would have all of these attributed except having respect for others - C.
Although even this answer perhaps couldn't be considered true because assertive people can have a positive attitude and respect towards other people it's just that in their case they respect themselves more and have a more positive view of themselves as well.
