Do you sell yourself short? If yes, how and why?
 
I can be overly modest just so that I don't come off as pretentious or like I am too full of my self... That is to say I think I'm really awesome but I sell myself short to other people so I don't have to be "on" all the time.

Yeah, i tend to underplay some things.
 
I don't think I actually sell myself short, but maybe more in a neutral way. If the subject in question is something I know a lot about, then I talk freely and confidently.
 
i think i estimate myself exactly as i am.
 
I'm not sure if i could judge that (accurately.) Seems like something someone else could answer better than I. That being said, I don't really think so.

I don't over sell myself, can't answer any better then that really.
