Some advice for completing the questionnaire

Take your time but don't dwell too long on your answers.

Remember to be honest with yourself - answer the questions in the way you see yourself NOT how you'd like to.

You must answer all the questions.

Don't worry if you find it hard to make a choice - simply pick the statements you feel are best for you personally.
