It is essential for prospective chemistry teachers to recognize their intelligence domains to maximize their potential. This study aims to describe the intelligence profiles of Chemistry Education students based on multiple intelligence scaling, considering variations in educational backgrounds. Using a quantitative approach, data were collected through a paired comparison method. The results indicate that intrapersonal intelligence consistently ranks highest across all groups, while logic-mathematical intelligence shows the lowest scores. Interpersonal, existential, and intrapersonal intelligences dominate among all groups. These findings highlight the need for targeted interventions to enhance logic-mathematical intelligence and optimize the diverse strengths of students. © 2026 Author(s).
