INTJ (also here) - what a surprise. :-) Actually, last time I took this test, about 7 or 8 years ago, I think I came out as ISTJ -- but both times I've been within 5% of the N/S line, so that's not really a change. Hmm, I was more J then than now, IIRC. Still very T, which should surprise no one.

Introverted (I) 61% Extraverted (E) 39%
Intuitive (N) 55% Sensing (S) 45%
Thinking (T) 85% Feeling (F) 15%
Judging (J) 55% Perceiving (P) 45%

The quiz -- a subset of the full Myers-Briggs test, worth what you paid for it, but interesting anyway. The real MBTI has some serious methodology issues, so it always boggles my mind to hear of places that use it seriously, like a past employer of mine tried to do. But as cocktail-party fodder, it's just fine.

Welcome to the club!

I had the complete Myers-Briggs test done about 8 years ago. I was of the same type then, Using this current test I get the following:

Introverted (I) 61% Extraverted (E) 39%
Intuitive (N) 55% Sensing (S) 45%
Thinking (T) 60% Feeling (F) 40%
Judging (J) 50% Perceiving (P) 50%

I think that this test is a bit too wishy-washy. So many of my answers are both of the above. Maybe I should have been in a more decisive mood tonight! I had some good moments of self-recognition reading the INTJ profile. Since I hadn't been in a work setting yet when I took this test first, the profiles didn't resonate too much.

This is especially so true for me:

INTJs can rise to management positions when they are willing to invest time in marketing their abilities as well as enhancing them, and (whether for the sake of ambition or the desire for privacy) many also find it useful to learn to simulate some degree of surface conformism in order to mask their inherent unconventionality.
