This test was ok for me. A lot of those are right, but I could easily be the opposite. I would fall under both categories for all four since my personality is very mood dependent, which actually isn't as bad as it sounds.

Qualitative analysis of your type formula

You are:
very expressed introvert
distinctively expressed intuitive personality
moderately expressed thinking personality
slightly expressed judging personality


Of course I think these results can change depending on circumstance and age.

I ran into difficulty on the first question....I would say yes to both depending on my mood and the situation.

SteveDallas 02-07-2008 08:52 AM

An actual "test" (that site hardly qualifies) would not just say... "Introvert or Extrovert? OK, cool, next question." You'd be answering a bunch of questions and it might or might not be obvious which characteristic an individual question is getting at. There would be an actual score for each category, so it would show, for example, extreme E, extrmee I, or on the borderline.

I'm a pretty solid INTJ. I also think these things are too reductionist to be useful.

I took the full blown MB over 15 years ago. INTJ. Not sure if it would change. The one site is just a list. For everything but J, I can fall into either category, but I am definitely a J.

I remember for the extrovert versus introvert portion of the test, it focused on getting energy from socializing and being in a group - something I do not get and I hate most social settings. But reading the list, yes, I talk a lot, and like to be around people I know, and can be easily distracted at times. But I like being alone in my thoughts, focusing on projects...

Sensor versus intuitive... I admire creativity, although I certainly lack it. Much more practicle in my approach. I think I tested as intuitive because I admire creativity, not because I am. I'm probably an S and not an N.

I'm a T with strangers and people I don't like or don't want to know (about 99.999999% of the population), but an F with those I care about.

I use to be more "INFP" but I must be maturing.

Im an INTP as well and it seems I have already been through half the list of possible careers.

kerosene 02-07-2008 10:00 AM

It is starting to make a lot of sense now why the careers I have chosen haven't worked out.
