    If ENTJ is a possibility, then I'm that. If not, then I must be thinking of another test.

    Re: 16 Personalities/Myers-Briggs Type Indicator

    I've done the 16 personalities test before and I was an ISTJ. I've thought that was really accurate to be honest. I mean I read some of the other personality descriptions and they obviously don't describe me. There really isn't one personality that is better than another. It's not a contest. It's just about understanding who you are better. Or more specifically, it's to help other people understand who you are better so they understand what some of your triggers are or understand what types of tasks you'll excel at. I think they have usefulness unless someone just deliberately answers them dishonestly, but there really isn't a reason to be dishonest (again, it's not a contest, there are no "bad" answers) unless you're just a cynical person.

    a lot of these questions seem like they'd change based on situation/mood but I got ADVOCATE (INFJ-T)

    ADVENTURER (ISFP-T)

    Adventurer personalities are true artists, but not necessarily in the typical sense where they’re out painting happy little trees. Often enough though, they are perfectly capable of this. Rather, it’s that they use aesthetics, design and even their choices and actions to push the limits of social convention. Adventurers enjoy upsetting traditional expectations with experiments in beauty and behavior – chances are, they’ve expressed more than once the phrase “Don’t box me in!”

    It wasn't J.Crew was it? I had to do the same thing to work for the J.Crew call center. And I swear it was hundreds of questions. You answered true or false by pressing the 1 or 2 button on the phone. I zoned out after who knows how many questions and answered True to "Sometimes you feel like you are living a double life." And they still offered me the job.

    Logician Personality (INTP, -A/-T)

    The Logician personality type is fairly rare, making up only three percent of the population, which is definitely a good thing for them, as there’s nothing they’d be more unhappy about than being “common”. Logicians pride themselves on their inventiveness and creativity, their unique perspective and vigorous intellect. Usually known as the philosopher, the architect, or the dreamy professor, Logicians have been responsible for many scientific discoveries throughout history.

    Sounds about right.

    Re: 16 Personalities/Myers-Briggs Type Indicator

    i've taken this test multiple times over the years and have always gotten INTJ, save for one time when it was INTP. reading the in depth analysis about my type really opened my eyes to who i am and why i do things i do. i made sense of a lot of things that happened in the past and brought a lot of clarity to me and helped me embrace who i am. there is much more to this than horoscopes.

    answer it "in general" if theres some times you would love it and some times you would hate it, then answer in the middle. if you're more one or the other, then answer leaning towards that way.

    Then you read the description, and like with a horoscope, you are able to pull out similarities to yourself.

    I know I'm an introvert, I know I'm kind and interested in feelings and listening to people rather than talking to people. But, as a psychology major, it's still interesting to me to read "detailed" theories.

    you have to read the detailed description, which is pages long. there is much more than just horoscope generalities. reading about my type allowed me to think back on a lot of situations in the past and how i handled them. i handled them the way i did because thats how i'm wired to. i've never come across anything else that was a more accurate description of who i am as a person than this test.

    INTJ here. When I took it several years ago I was amazed at how it had me and my habits pegged. It felt like they had been following me around.
