Question:
It\\\'s late afternoon on a Thursday, and the only thing between Jahanzaib and the weekend is a big biology test at 9:30 a.m. on Friday. There\\\'s a lot at stake on this test: It will count for one-third of his final grade. His cell phone rings. It\\\'s Sahir with an invitation. "A group of us are planning to go out in the evening. We thought about an early dinner and a movie. So don\\\'t be late," he says. The last time Jahanzaib went outing before a big test, he came home late. This time he is committed to coming home by 9:00 p.m. to review for
the test. Jahanzaib goes out with Sahir and his friends. He is having a wonderful time, and every time he thinks about going home, he says to himself, "Just a little longer and I will go." Before he knows it, it\\\'s 1:30 a.m., and the test is only eight hours away. Jahanzaib is exhausted and stressed. He has to decide whether he should sleep a few hours or study the remaining time to pass the test. He decides to sleep. He sets the alarm for 4:00 a.m., when he wakes up and starts to study, but his roommate\\\'s alarm goes off at 6:00 a.m. His roommate keeps hitting snooze, so the alarm goes off every 15 minutes. Jahanzaib is annoyed. He doesn\\\'t want to leave the room, but he has to concentrate. He complains, "I\\\'m trying to study. Will you please be quiet!" His stress is getting worse, and now it\\\'s 8:30 a.m. His cell phone rings. It\\\'s Jahanzaib\\\'s mother reminding him about his grandmother\\\'s birthday. He snaps, "Mom, please don\\\'t bother me now. I am studying." He is stressed, on edge, and exhausted, and he feels a big headache coming up.
Based on the above scenario:
a. How would you evaluate Jahanzaib’s emotional intelligence? And why?
b. Suggest, what could he have done differently?
c. What competencies does he need to improve? Write and explain ANY TWO.
