According to Donald Super's career theory, a student who is forming a tentative career plan is likely in which of the stages of career development?

Growth
Exploration
Establishment
Maintenance

The correct answer is: Exploration

Donald Super's career theory outlines five stages of career development growth, exploration, establishment, maintenance, and decline. A student who is forming a tentative career plan is likely in the stage of exploration. This is because in this stage, individuals begin to explore and gather information about different career options, assess their interests and skills, and develop a tentative career plan. The other options, including growth, establishment, and maintenance, are later stages of career development that involve actually entering and developing in a chosen career field. Therefore, they are incorrect choices for a student who is still forming a tentative career plan.
