See? It has me thinking and judging only 1% each, while it seems to me I do that sort of thing all the time.

I didn't mind being considered introverted, because they never seem to make the difference between being pathologically shy and just being happy to spend time alone when you get a chance, and those are not at all the same two things.

They have me pegged as introvert, even after I lied and said I'd rather go to the party than read a good book.

Which makes me think that you are the first, and don't mind if people think you are the second, because surely, the opposite wouldn't be true...

Found this thread and as I am a sucker for this sort of thing I couldn't resist....apparently I am a Guardian Protector - for that read: doormat, unappreciated and loyal beyond sense...yup! ;D I was surprised to find that I am a follower of the status quo since my lifestyle is moderately odd and different to many people's (I thought). Also says I'm introverted which is right - more hermit like really....still it's nice to know the jobs I've done are right for me - social work, working with people with disabilities, education - but also says adminstrative - secretarial work- bizarrely since I detest paperwork and avoid it whenever possible! More correct than not though I think..fascinating...
Added my results
* moderately expressed introvert 54% * slightly expressed sensing personality 22% * distinctively expressed feeling personality 75% * slightly expressed judging personality 12%
Oh no...it says George Bush is my personality type........help me.....

I had completely forgotten about this test and thought it would interesting to take it again to see if I got the same results. And the results have shifted: You are: moderately expressed introvert moderately expressed intuitive personality moderately expressed thinking personality slightly expressed judging personality introverted 50% intuitive 38% thinking 25% judging 22% Stephen Hawking, Marie Curie and Hillary Clinton are just like me!

What? You want to be alone to make my day dressed as a Viking, to rule the Free World and build dams in your spare time? Something like that maybe.....

Turns out I'm an Artisan Composer, but with slightly different results than last time. What about those places where you feel like putting "neither one or the other"? ISFP
Like Audrey Hepburn, Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan and Mozart
I just compared with last time. It looks as though I have gone from being a slightly expressed extrovert to being a slightly expressed introvert!

One thing I am, is in an indecisive state. I kept wanting a ‘sometimes’ option. I’m a ‘Healer’: moderately expressed introvert moderately expressed intuitive personality moderately expressed feeling personality moderately expressed perceiving personality 44 introverted 25 intuitive 38 feeling 56 perceiving The career options are: counseling, religious education ( ), education, humanities, web design, musician, literature/writer, archaeology, psychology/psychotherapist. Love my fellow INFP’ers, Albert Einstein, Mother Theresa, Princess Diana, J.R.R. Tolkian. Heehee. I can never resist these tests...it seems I've become a tad more extroverted over the year.

I've just tried again but this time lied for every question. It deduces that apparently the most fitting employment for me is a politician or financial advisor.

I burst out laughing upon reading the most recent responses on here...the ladies at the library here are giving me disapproving glances despite my keeping them plied with wine and Meyer lemons...where's the gratitude ladies??? Still a load of bunk these "tests" are...

I was going to say the same thing. We have one extrovert! I was thinking of doing this test again, but have to agree, it's a load of rubbish.

I think any test that only gives you "A" and "B" options for answers is a load of nonsense. Humans are gray, not black and white. As others have said, my answers might change depending on my mood. But since I wasted my time taking this stupid test and others have put their results up I suppose I should post mine.
My personality type - ENTJ, a Rational Fieldmarshal
# moderately expressed extravert - 44 # moderately expressed intuitive personality - 50 # moderately expressed thinking personality - 25 # slightly expressed judging personality - 1
A few famous ENTJ personalities - Napoleon, Hillary Clinton, Margaret Thatcher, Bill Gates, Carl Sagan, Sean Connery, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Mark Anthony, Yulia Tymoshenko (who is that) and MADONNA! Many other famous people are on this lost and I find I have remarkably little in common with them.
None of my careers are anything remotely close to what interests me. Examples - Law, Business Management, Military Education, Politics, Engineering, Counseling, Computer Programming.
In terms of assessing my personality type I suppose I could roughly be described as an ENTJ type but since I didn't look into what all the characteristics of the other types are I don't know for sure. I suspect most people are a blend of types but have a few traits which dominate. I am rational and pragmatic and perhaps these are the traits which made me classified as an ENTJ.

Yulia Tymoshenko is a Ukrainian politician -- became known during the Orange revolution but lost the last election to the guy supporting closer ties with Russia.
And my test type left out "pedantic" because every time I see "extrovert" misspelled on this test it drives me nuts.

I too thought "extravert" was misspelled but in doing a little googling I found that in relation to psychiatric tests (or something like that) it is the correct spelling.

I've taken the Myers Briggs tests a bunch of times and it's always the same:
INFJ (Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Judging)
I took it once at school when I was young and the teachers told my parents only about 1% of people are INFJ -- Not sure how true that is though.

I've changed just a tiny bit since the last time I took the test.
•You have distinctive preference of Introversion over Extraversion (67%) •You have moderate preference of Intuition over Sensing (25%) •You have moderate preference of Thinking over Feeling (38%) •You have slight preference of Judging over Perceiving (22%)

I'm an INTJ, also, and have been the same since I first took the Myers Briggs when in my early twenties.
