I personally read the application entirely in the order in which it was written before doing anything, sometimes applicants just have a certain vibe that will be a good indication of my future choice. Some are obviously exuberant, some are obviously more introverted. I start from there.
I completely agree with this! I also start off by simply reading through the entire application without particularly focusing on specific questions, and quite often the TONE of the application points me in the right direction for an animagus form, because through writing we get different vibes when it comes to the applicant. Some might come across as bouncy and energetic, and then I tend to look for more social animagus forms, and others can be more logical and serious with their answers, which also tends to give me a good clue about what they're looking for. :)
