[Bootboi]

INFJ

Same as its always been

[always2late]

ESFJ "Seller": Most sociable of all types. Outstanding host or hostesses. They may be dependent, first on parents and later on spouses. They excel in service occupations involving personal contact. 13% of the total population.


Hmmm..I suppose that "nurse" fits as a service occupation involving personal contact.

I took this test years ago but can't remember what the results were. All I remember is that me and one other person (a person I did not particularly like) had the same results. So there ended my enthusiasm for personality tests lol.

I took it again though. I'm an ISTJ. No idea what that means except it says I should be an accountant. Since I hate math and numbers it doesn't really fit me. Give me a good book any day.

ENFP 's unite!

[Softly]

Your Personality type is ISFJ
These people are service and work oriented - very loyal. They may suffer from fatigue and tend to be attracted to troublemakers. They are good nurses, teachers, secretaries, general practitioners, librarians, middle managers, and housekeepers. 6% of the total population.

[Gentle Tiger]

INTJ: "Scientist". Most self-confident and pragmatic of all the types. Decisions come very easily. These are the most independent of all types. They love logic and ideas and are drawn to scientific research. They can be rather single-minded, though.. 1% of the total population.

I so wish I had taken this in elementary school. My mom could have been spared so much! LOL It definitely helped in High School. I haven't moved much in the scores.

(Funny...I took this test 6 years ago as a job requirement, and I scored the same as I did today)

ISTP's value privacy and sometimes keep important issues to themselves. Their concern for the present moment and their inability to recognize the importance of setting goals, often leads them into conflict with authority. Being action-oriented, ISTP's react against restrictions — which typically causes the controls placed on them to increase. In these situations, boredom can quickly set in and the ISTP may experience feelings of internal emptiness. Overly regulated situations cause ISTP's stress. In such situations, ISTP's either attempt to flee or turn to fight their adversary face-to-face.

The ISTP's form of retaliation can be characterized as defiling what other people value. The ISTP violates rules and regulations that protect individual rights in retaliation for the lost opportunities and freedom that the ISTP believes they have had to endure. Getting even stimulates them and a renewed sense of excitement emerges from the risks of revenge and the expression of outrage. If stress continues, ISTP's will put what remaining freedom they have left in jeopardy by rebelling further.

INFP: "Questor". Not sure I agree with the description, but I find the list to be pretty accurate!

[Unndunn]

When I was younger I always came out as an INTP. I guess I'm getting more warm and fuzzy with time. My profession (psych) is listed, so I guess it's somewhat accurate. Oh, and one of the other pages said that only 1% of the population is my type. I guess that explains a lot. -------------------------
INFP


INFP's feel internal turmoil when they find themselves in situations in which there is conflict between their inner code of ethics and their relationships with others. They feel caught between pleasing others and maintaining their own integrity. Their natural tendency to identify with others, compounded with their self-sacrificial dispositions, tends to leave them confused as to who they really are. Their quiet personalities further feeds their feelings of depersonalization. The INFP's quest for self-identity then seems even more alluring — but increasingly impossible to attain.

As with all NFs, the INFP will feel lost and perplexed at stressful times. As stress builds, INFP's become disconnected from their own personality and perceived place in life. They will lose sight of who they are in relation to time and place. They may not make basic observations, while instead they will focus on the more abstract and symbolic meanings of a particular interaction. This can sometimes baffle those who expect more direct communication and a fairly concrete relationship.

I've wavered in scores throughout my (relatively short) adult lifetime, but this time, it came out INFP. I deviate quite a bit from the mould it describes, and while I've actually considered many of the careers it suggests, I'm pretty sure most or all of them would just end up driving me insane. (For the record, I'm considering finishing my accountancy two-year, because bookkeeping is one of the few things I've found which lets me stop feeling and intuiting, and just lets me compute, with no ambiguity, no need to feel anything, and no need to make decisions. I honestly don't know what that makes me.)

[Jett]

INTP: "Architect". Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists, but not writers or salespeople. 1% of the total population.

Though I think I came up INFP... when I took the Myers Briggs full test...

great thread!
what was expected of me the "Pedagogue" Im a ENFJ ! I knew it!

[Nat]

I'm an INFP. My job's not a dreamer-job, but that's alright. I need the structure of my 8-5 cubicle life to keep me going. It's so hard to create my own structure.

ISTJ "Trustee" These are dependable pillars of strength. They often try to reform their mates and other people. They make good bank examiners, auditors, accountants, and phys. ed. teachers, and boy or girl scouts! 6% of the total population

The jobs listed for this type would all suck for me....I like being a scrub tech. I can't imagine doing anything else.
