I always test out as an INFP when I take these things.

I skimmed over that website link of all the possible MBTI personality tests--a lot of bias toward seemingly all of the other personality types in favor of a select four or five. There are a total of sixteen possible combinations of the eight letters, or so-called personality archetypes, and many of the opening passages of the archetype combination descriptions were ridiculously negative all on grounds of speculation and mere opinion. Take my test result for example--a result with which I happen to disagree and contest--of ENTJ. The website's opening description of the ENTJ archetype combination goes like this: "I don't care to sit by the window on an airplane. If I can't control it, why look? ENTJs have a natural tendency to marshall and direct. This may be expressed with the charm and finesse of a world leader or with the insensitivity of a cult leader... TRADEMARK: -- "I'm really sorry you have to die." (I realize this is an overstatement. However, most Fs and other gentle souls usually chuckle knowingly at this description.)"

According to this test I scored 100% in the area of Judgment as well as 1% or little to no marginal preference between the areas of Thinking and Feeling (which comes as no surprise to me as I place equal emphasis on both), moderate tendency toward Extroversion, and a moderate tendency toward Intuition. I understand there are no correct answers, but as an earlier post here mentioned it all just seems "too black and white" to be taken as a formal scientific evaluation of any kind. Pardon me but Jung was a crock. :whistle:

Indeed, MBTI in academia is considered a borderline pseudo-science. It is a popular personality model in that it is easy to understand and apply in real life, and even without strictly scientific evidence the theory itself is quite robust. (The jury's still out on whether findings in neuroscience really support the theory or not.) Some people (including myself at one point some time past) tend to take this theory too seriously, but in the end we must acknowledge that it is a useful tool for understanding differences in human personality, nothing more or less.

ENTJ :( I don't like how it's perceived as the "slytherin" of the personality types. I think it just because I'm bad with feelings and tend to think with my head instead of my heart. I'm working on that thoough

ISFJ

You have moderate preference of Introversion over Extraversion (44%)
You have slight preference of Sensing over Intuition (12%)
You have slight preference of Feeling over Thinking (12%)
You have slight preference of Judging over Perceiving (11%)


Answering 73 questions with a 'Yes' or 'No' doesn't really feel all that accurate. And some of those questions I really wished for a "Both" :|

Edit: Seems Queen Mary I "Bloody Mary" was also an ISFJ. Oh joy.
