SELF EVALUATION FORM
(To be completed by all PIMF Participants)

Some Good Advice for filling out this self-evaluation: Answer as accurately as you can! This is not a resume,
and we are not looking to be impressed. We will use this form to help place you in appropriate groups, so it is
to your best advantage to answer well.

Guidelines for the numbering (see below):

1 = Least Strong. Meaning: perhaps all you did was read through the piece. You may have a very basic
familiarity with it, but not much more that that. This is perfectly fine! There is value in this and EVERYONE
has done it before.

10 = Concert Ready. Meaning: as close to perfection as you can attain. Nobody is perfect, but this is your
absolute highest standard. If you have done this with only piece, great!

One last thing: have fun! We think this is a great opportunity for you to see what you have accomplished in
the past.
