What's your (MBTI) type?
 

Because when you do one quiz posted on Facebook, you get sucked in. I'm an INFP. Which, among other things, makes for a really strong writer.

(Yes, I'm aware there are older threads on this. Welp!)

What site did you use to test yourself?

For 25+ years, I was an ENFP, but the E was close to the E/I line. Last time I took the test, I had crossed the line to INFP.

I'm an ISFJ; I've taken at least 2 official forms of the test and a few internet versions, and I've almost always gotten that result.

I saw that someone typed Neville Longbottom as ISFJ, and after thinking about his character, I see a lot of similarities between himself and me. We're both fiercely protective of our friends, kind to people, and love stability.

My dad describes some of my personality as "putting the hyphen in anal-retentive", and I think that's a fairly apt observation. I'm very concerned with every little detail. I spent 2 days hand-painting my org's crest because taping a picture wasn't enough for what I was making. I'm most comfortable leading in a lesser role, but if I am called upon to serve in an executive position, I carry out my duties to the best of my ability.

Even though I'm an introvert, I love being around big groups of people. I personally just can't handle more than a few people talking at the same time. My brain tries to process all of the conversations, which it can't do, and I just need to get air. I also prefer deep conversations to small talk, which made recruitment a bit of a mixed bag for me.

Is there a good MB free test somewhere? I just took one, but had to pay for my results. No.

I have no idea what I am. I'm read descriptions, and I fall solidly in the middle on some things. At work, I'm one way, and at home on my time, I'm a different way.

As far as I can guess, I'm a:

E (with the need for I on a semi regular basis)
S (This is the only one I'm sure of)
T (But I can get very emotional over situations that shouldn't affect me in any way, so I could be an F)
P at home, J at work

ESFJ


So I googled what that meant. I'm a people's person (which is very true, one of the only people I feel like who don't mind others). One thing that stuck out is that I bring the best out of people which I totally agree with ( someone I became friends with back in high school wrote this heartfelt message to me about how I got him out of his shell and how he was super appreciative about it!)

http://www.16personalities.com/ You may be able to find a shorter quiz, but this is what I used.

ESFJ. That seems pretty on-target.

I spent most of the second half of 2013 on a cross-country job search. One of the recruiters had me do this hour-long personality test. The results were pretty accurate and a little surprising!

For me, the INFP (the idealist): this description stuck out to me when Googling:

If you know me off GC, the bold is all me. The two major career paths that stick out for me have been helping professions (education/social work) and writing. At work, I need my space, physically (because I'm a total mess) and professionally (I can't ever go back to a 9-5, and I couldn't be tied to my desk or work completely alone). Im super shy and reserved in relationships, spend way too much time daydreaming about romantic ideals, and totally value intimacy > sex (by a small margin!).

I'm really a dreamer (I wouldnt be surprised if Walter Mitty was an INFP). Apparently I'm supposed to be super sensitive and avoids conflict. Sensitive, hardly. Avoids conflict, absolutely.

The fictional characters lists are hilarious. Harry Potter, Doug Funnie, among them. AA Milne (the creator of Winnie the Pooh) and one of the creators of MBTI has my type. So... yeah, that.

ENTP last time I took it, which was a while ago. Except that I INSIST I'm an F, not a T. I have all kinds of thoughts and arguments and reasons why. Of course, the fact that I want to argue and reason about being an F just makes me that much more of a T. Sigh.

ETA: Although the link above says ESFJ. Really?

ENTJ

This is why I declare my undying love for you every so-so. :p I also walk the ENFP/INFP line.

Dear Me,

Hi.

Love, Me.

I'm also an ENFP. I took it administered by a professional at a work training a few years back. I'm about as strong on the N and the P as you can get, and was only maybe one point into the E (I feel more like an I).

I'm and ENFP, with the P very close to a J

I'm an ESFJ as well!

INFJ here.

INTJ for the win, with KSUViolet! We're "The Mastermind"

I took the test on 16 personalities!

I'm an ESFP. So pretty close to what I thought! There's a few parts of it I don't agree with (I'm pretty much the anti-ESFP when it comes to parenting), but it's pretty close.

INFP here. I am nowhere near being borderline E...which is fine. I'll just go stand over here in a corner by myself.

I love personality tests.

I used to be straight ENFJ but now I'm more borderline ENFJ/ENFP. Don't know why/how that changed. I just took all four of the above tests and scored ENFJ on two of them and ENFP on the other two. SO I guess I'm pretty split. I think I still align better with ENFJ though.

Using this I got ISTJ. This is the first time that I've taken this type of test. I thought it pegged me pretty well.

I'm an ENFP! That stands for Everyday New Fun Possibilities! (and yes, I test to ENFP)

I'm an ISTP and it's dead-on accurate. I love the way MB defines "introvert" as someone who recharges their battery by having quiet time alone. Although I am quite comfortable in public speaking situations, being around large groups of people in a social setting totally drains me. That's horrible at OPA events like our national convention because I am truly having a great time, but I have to give myself a timeout to make it through the whole convention.

Am I the only INTP around here?

I've taken several tests over about 25 years, same result. First time, it was part of a team building exercise at work. It really helped -- especially with my boss. She was ISFJ --almost exact opposites, helped us understand each other better.

We rule. :D

My husband and I took this as part of our pre-marital counseling; at that time, we were both ENFP. I also took it in a graduate class. The older I get, the more ENFJ I get. I think this is a result of having more experience in professional/social situations -- now I can readily answer some of the questions, whereas I previously had to speculate on some of them. I can also see where I definitely align with the ENFJ type, in terms of personality, teaching, and parenting style.

I'm an ESFJ along with Bill Clinton. I used to be E/I border line but am fully E now.

INFJ
 

I am an INFJ! We are the most rare of the personalities. Only 1% of the population :) Creative, nuturing, introspective, and a "I have to save the world" attitude. I'm pretty sure they say Mother Theresa and Ghandi are INFJ's.

When I took it in college, I was INFP. I wonder if it can change as you get older. You're still you, but you might answer questions differently based on life experience.

ISTJ here too, I took the test as part of a work seminar - I was the lone accountant in a group of actuaries. As I recall, lots of I types in that group. This pretty much describes me too. I like people, and don't mind meetings, but I need alone time frequently.
