Group work in real life and online are two very different things. From working around each other’s schedules to battling with brownouts and unstable connections, the simple act of meeting online may be harder than the requirement itself. That’s probably why when a new group work comes up, you might feel a variety of emotions. Well, that depends on what type of worker you are. Are you the type of person who hard-carries everything in a group? Or are you someone who finds relief because you know someone else will do the work for you? We’re here to find out. Take this quiz and we’ll tell you what type of groupmate you are!

The Beadle
You plan everything. As in everything. You know what deadlines you have exactly two months, three days and 37 seconds from now. You are a living breathing Google Calendar. No problem can get past you unsolved, and you're able to finish any task with a few hours to spare.
The Artist
You probably have a Canva Pro subscription. You were that art kid back in grade school who shouldered all drawing assignments, and that hasn't changed any less now that you’re in college. What you don’t want your groupmates to know is that you’re satisfied as long as you work on anything but the actual content.
The Traveler
You are everywhere: at the beach, in a cafe or at an online concert. You never turn on your camera because the first thing your professor will see is your hair flowing as you bask in the beautiful outdoors. You always get your job done—albeit at the very last minute because you'd rather think about the next vacation paradise than your next deeadline.
The Ghoster
It’s a mystery how you were able to answer this quiz, considering you probably took more time answering these questions than replying to your groupmates. If we look at the Google Docs history, your name will pop-up once: The time you typed your name on the document. For those with valid reasons, we understand. For those with none, maybe it's time to do better.
