Oh ok whatever.

ESTP

The S and T were just barely. Had I answered a couple differently that I was on the edge about it would have probably given me something more accurate.

There are lots of Promoters -- maybe ten or so percent of the population, and life is never dull around them. In a word, they are men and women of action. When a Promoter is present, things begin to happen: the lights come on, the music plays, the games begin. Clever and full of fun, Promoters live with a theatrical flourish which makes even the most routine events seem exciting. Not that they waste much time on routine events. In work and in play, Promoters demand new activities and new challenges. Bold and daring at heart, and ever-optimistic that things will go their way, Promoters will take tremendous risks to get what they want, and seem exhilarated by walking close to the edge of disaster. Because of this, they make the very best trouble-spot administrators and negotiators, and they can be outstanding entrepreneurs, able to swing deals and kick-start enterprises in a way no other type can.

Communication tip for ESTP employee with a Guardian boss

Promoters also have a hearty appetite for the finer things of life, the best food, the best wine, expensive cars, and fashionable clothes. And they are extremely sophisticated in social circles, knowing many, many people by name, and knowing how to say just the right thing to most everyone they meet.

Charming, confident, and popular, Promoters delight their friends and investors with their endless supply of stories and jokes. At the same time, these smooth operators are usually something of a mystery to others. While they live in the moment and lend excitement - and unpredictability - to all their relationships, they rarely let anyone get really close to them. They have a low tolerance for authority and commitment, and are likely to leave situations where they are expected to toe the mark, or where they must play second fiddle. Promoters understand well the maxim, "He who travels fastest, travels alone," although they are not likely to be lonely for long, since their boldness and sense of adventure tends to make them highly attractive to many other people.

Close enough.

Two years ago I was an INTJ, and after taking it again, expecting different results, I also got INTJ.

I guess I'm INTJ.

The I (Introverted) and J (Judging) are only 22%. T (Thinking) is 100%, and N (Intuitive) are 88%.

"only" 22% My strongest were lower than that.

My S and T were each 1%

I refuse to do this anymore

ENTP

"Inventors begin building gadgets and mechanisms as young children, and never really stop, though as adults they will turn their inventiveness to many kinds of organizations, social as well as mechanical. There aren't many Inventors, say about two percent of the population, but they have great impact on our everyday lives. With their innovative, entrepreneurial spirit, Inventors are always on the lookout for a better way, always eyeing new projects, new enterprises, new processes. Always aiming to "build a better mousetrap."Inventors are keenly pragmatic, and often become expert at devising the most effective means to accomplish their ends. They are the most reluctant of all the types to do things in a particular manner just because that's the way they have been done. As a result, they often bring fresh, new approaches to their work and play. They are intensely curious and continuously probe for possibilities, especially when trying to solve complex problems. Inventors are filled with ideas, but value ideas only when they make possible actions and objects. Thus they see product design not as an end in itself, but as a means to an end, as a way of devising the prototype that works and that can be brought to market. Inventors are confident in their pragmatism, counting on their ability to find effective ways and means when they need them, rather than making a detailed blueprint in advance. A rough idea is all they need to feel ready to proceed into action."

I know it's been done many times and the types are only half-accurate anyway but it's a fun poll

i thought this thread was about sausages. i tend to almost always get INTP. the thing that remains constant thought and that sticks out to me, is the 'slightly over feminine' part. why is understanding and sympathy a pussy game?

I won't bother with the test again, but INTJ is probably the one that describes me best. The I and T should be very strong, while the J is especially weak. And this category is now 25% of the poll even though it's supposed to be less than 4% of the population.

INTP

I move between intp/intj since in most cases the p/j are like less than 10%

INFP

Oh god.  If this isn't me, I don't know what is.

ISFJ

Introverted 56%
Sensing 12%
Feeling 25%
Judging 1%

''We are lucky that Protectors make up as much as ten percent the population, because their primary interest is in the safety and security of those they care about - their family, their circle of friends, their students, their patients, their boss, their fellow-workers, or their employees. Protectors have an extraordinary sense of loyalty and responsibility in their makeup, and seem fulfilled in the degree they can shield others from the dirt and dangers of the world. Speculating and experimenting do not intrigue Protectors, who prefer to make do with time-honored and time-tested products and procedures rather than change to new. At work Protectors are seldom happy in situations where the rules are constantly changing, or where long-established ways of doing things are not respected. For their part, Protectors value tradition, both in the culture and in their family. Protectors believe deeply in the stability of social ranking conferred by birth, titles, offices, and credentials. And they cherish family history and enjoy caring for family property, from houses to heirlooms.''

ISTJ, but I've always been on the fence for that second letter. Only got 12% Sensing this time.

I seem to interchange between ISTJ and INTJ at randumb. 5thgrade;

thanks for making it a choice, guy.

this is a war, between the Ss and the Ns  baddood;

According to my past vote, I am an N. What does that mean?

Your functions are based more in Intuiting (seeing future possibilities) than Sensing (reacting to the present environment).

ENTP would have extraverted Intuition and introverted Thinking as primary functions

NICE BUDDY

I KNEW IT

it's less about personality descriptions and more about the order in which your brain performs functions

enfp - extraverted intuition, introverted feeling, extraverted thinking, introverted sensing

heh lady, i like you a lot, but you see... I need you to take this test. Can't answer why, it won't make sense...just do it...for us.

i wonder how that would feel like IT WOULD BE AMAZING

i don't feel like i fit in with any of the infps
the infps i know are too boring and stale with their constant need to please others and keep things balanced and dislike conflict (meanwhile i really do enjoy conflict and i like things out of balance to surface things that need to be fixed)
it's said they're also very sympathetic (i just feel detached/uninterested most of the time)

i guess what i share with infps are stupid shit like wanting to have options open forever and being overly idealistic  lubdoods;

Those are common traits of all NFs, you could be NFJ. But I honestly have no idea what you would be  doodthing;

TOO UNIQUE TO BE LABELED

the only person who was a different infp was sylvia plath and her personality was incredibly similar to mines (uncaring and caring simultaneously; distant and overly personal, aggressive and kindhearted, etc)
i guess our values contradict and conflict (valuing security and valuing adventurousness) with one another so strongly that we just dance between two halves for the desperate attempt savoir the entire whole

I am definitely ENFP, but I'm really a mix between extroverted and introverted, and thinking and feeling. I'm entirely Intuitive and Perceiving, though.

According to wikipedia, ENFP's are relatively rare.  And INFP, ENTP, and INTP are even rarer.  saddood;

many people are both extroverted and introverted. It's just what you lean to more.

Like I lean more to introversion, but that doesn't mean I won't be sociable.

also I'm INFJ

I get a different one each time I take this.

you can be a shy extrovert or a not shy introvert, I or E is about where you base your reality.  they say Extraverts feel energized when spending time around people and Introverts feel drained the more time they spend around people.

The thing is, I constantly change between the two. There are times where I feel extremely pumped up and excited to be around people, and other times when I'm just sick of being around people. It's hard to explain without making it sound like "Oh yeah, that's just how everyone is." Because I feel like it's not.

Also, here's another easy way to see which Jung personality type you are, without taking a test:
