Alta vista returns 406 hits for "Strong-Campbell" and 18 thousand plus hits when I query for "Myers-Briggs". These fairly large number of sites indicates that you will have ample opportunity to find guidance in preparation of your assignment.

Assignment:

After you have received your results from the Strong and you have scored the Myers-Briggs, prepare a two page letter to an important person in your life (e.g., your parents or your grandparents). In the two-page single spaced letter you will want to explain the assessment results from the Strong and the Myers-Briggs in terms which this lay person will understand. Include in your package for me the letter and copies of your assessment results.

Recall that you examined your parents' career objectives. Possibly that experience has influenced some of your own career aspirations, values and behaviors.
