MCIS is an online tool used during advisory to help students discover future careers. Students take a questionnaire describing their interest in certain jobs, what their hobbies are, and their pastimes. MCIS uses these answers to recommend careers that match their interests. But just how accurate is it? Take this quiz to find out! Each question involves a real story from inside BHS. Using the same information about students’ interests that they filled out in the questionnaires, guess what MCIS chose as their career!
