So there's this guy named Jung Something or Something Jung and he thought he could generalize all the personalities of the world into eight catagories. Pfft. (You couldn't even fit ours into 8 if you wanted to.) Anyways, I took the test and got ENTP: extraverted 11%, intuitive 38%, thinking 12%, perceiving 56%. Some other ENTP's include Thomas Edison and Leonardo Da Vinci. (I guess I've graced this group with my presence.) I do relate to some of the things that were said in the description, such as "perverse sense of humor" and "little patience with those they consider wrongheaded or unintelligent". I'm also relieved that suitable careers are those that involve "intensive intellectual efforts". However, I'm wondering if this is one of those things where it's SO generalized where you have no choice but to agree with what they're saying, like horoscopes.
I also remember taking this test for my psychology class in high school and getting a different answer. I got INTP which is the same as today's results except for the introversion. I have to believe that people are able to change, because let's be honest (lesbianest), high school Binny ain't got nothing on college Binny.

Probably not normal for somebody who, too, writes the blog to comment, but.... Binny, we are perfect for each other... exactly the same, but completely opposite holds true once again.

INTPs build successful careers in areas requiring quite intensive intellectual efforts and calling for creative approach. INTPs are often found in research, development and analytical departments.
