College student seeking assistance

I'm conducting college research to create general profiles of various professions, lifestyles and communities of people. Below are several very simple surveys that we'd like your participation in. Please complete any that fit you. Each takes about five minutes to complete.

I'm aiming for at least 1000 participants in each survey within a month so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jaison - Administrative Survey Team

It makes you wonder how intelligent these survey people are - anybody with a spark of intelligence would simply have a question in their survey that asked how do you rate your attractiveness to others, with perhaps 1 (pig ugly) to 5 (a looker) as answers. Similarly for those other dumb ass categories - they have no relation to each other and each should simply be a question within a single form ie what job do you do. You'd might then get a response from all the people that might respond. Instead if you feel yourself to be unattractive you have to relegate yourself to filling out a separate form to everybody else! I suppose we shouldn't be surprised the links don't work or that his parents couldn't spell Jason.

Dare we ask which categories? Obviously there's no need to tell us any of the information you put within the forms as that would be personal

I've guessed four.

Are the surveys actually different to each other?

Then MBK is exactly right.

I think however "survey people" is a bit of a misnomer - surveymonkey is specifically for "non-survey people". I have to get that in as I work with "survey people" on a daily basis, and most are quite superb.
