A question on my college survey says “What are your concerns or worries about starting or continuing college, such as subject areas you need to improve, study skills, or other issues that may make it difficult for you to finish?”

Question

What should my answer be like? I think I have good study skills but should I admit the subject areas that I need to improve in, or is that a trick question?

Another question says “What else would you like your student navigator to know about you?” Are they asking me to tell them personal things like favorite foods or activities or about my family?

What would be the best way to answer these questions?

Answer 1

Be straightforward. I doubt they are trick questions. They sound like questions requiring a certain amount of self-analysis.

“Student navigator” is a term I’ve never heard of before. You should be clear about what such a person is supposed to do in order to address that question.

Answer 2

i think the student navigator is the person who views my application and profile.
