Well well well. I think mine hit the nail on the head.

To outsiders, INTJs may appear to project an aura of "definiteness", of self-confidence. This self-confidence, sometimes mistaken for simple arrogance by the less decisive, is actually of a very specific rather than a general nature; its source lies in the specialized knowledge systems that most INTJs start building at an early age. When it comes to their own areas of expertise -- and INTJs can have several -- they will be able to tell you almost immediately whether or not they can help you, and if so, how. INTJs know what they know, and perhaps still more importantly, they know what they don't know.

INTJs are perfectionists, with a seemingly endless capacity for improving upon anything that takes their interest. What prevents them from becoming chronically bogged down in this pursuit of perfection is the pragmatism so characteristic of the type: INTJs apply (often ruthlessly) the criterion "Does it work?" to everything from their own research efforts to the prevailing social norms. This in turn produces an unusual independence of mind, freeing the INTJ from the constraints of authority, convention, or sentiment for its own sake.

Nevertheless, INTJs are prepared to lead if no one else seems up to the task, or if they see a major weakness in the current leadership. INTJs can be unsparing of both themselves and the others on the project. Anyone considered to be "slacking," including superiors, will lose their respect -- and will generally be made aware of this. They have a talent for analyzing and formulating complex theories. INTJs are generally well-suited for occupations within academia, research, consulting, management, science, engineering, and law. INTJs thus develop a strong confidence in their ability and talents, making them natural leaders.

Personal relationships, particularly romantic ones, can be the INTJ's Achilles heel. While they are capable of caring deeply for others (usually a select few), and are willing to spend a great deal of time and effort on a relationship, the knowledge and self-confidence that make them so successful in other areas can suddenly abandon or mislead them in interpersonal situations.

This happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense.the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness.

INTJ.


Woo.

ISTJ. Pretty much says I'm an asshole to your face, but it's for your own good. Sounds about right.

Makes it sound like I'm a pretty bland person, lol.

I found myself thinking a lot of the questions were too similar, just worded with a slight twist. I'd like to see how a close friend or family member would answer the questions for me.

[avenger]

ISTP, but as i'm reading through the description about 1/2 of it is the complete opposite of me.

I had to take a 250 question personality test for my current job. It was just like you said there; but I think the one for my job was trying to get you to contradict yourself, therefore getting you to "fail" and cut from the pool of candidates.

I don't need to take a test to know I'm an asshole.

Tests came in William, you're an asshole.

Well there you have it people. Isn't modern science amazing?

INTJ

way into that introverted range.

I got ISTJ and, if CharlieGiteau's analysis is correct (I didn't really read anything after it gave me the letters), it's pretty far off!

It described us as having "icy veins" and being upfront and honest with people when pushed beyond our normal "introverted" feelings. I read it to the guys at work, they all laughed and said "Yep, sounds like the asshole you are.". Although, the description isn't 'spot' on, but has a lot of what does describe me.

Definitely not surprised you're posting something other than your MBPT results.

[unpro]

a very large number of people are introverts, most are just capable of dealing with people better than some.

personally im terrible with crowds, or people i dont know in person. i could know you very well online, but ill be pretty quiet in real life unless you directly ask me something until i get to know you. online im a totally outgoing person, ill talk to you all you want. something in my brain keeps me from doing it in social situations though.

i avoid amusement parks, theaters, and wont even bother going to restaurants when its normal eating times unless i have no choice. Im much better than i was when i was younger, but i still hate more than small groups. im also pretty fucking paranoid about people.

I scored INTP in jr year hs, but INTJ now. And the difference between introvert and extravert is just where you draw your energy from, extraverts gain energy from other people, but introverts lose energy from being around other people. Just because you are an introvert doesn't mean you aren't social.
