https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test
This is known to be the best (or one of the best) personality test(s) out there. If you're interested, feel free to share.
I'm INTP, by the way.
-
I'm a weirdo.
I'm an EXFP, which I've been told isn't possible...but whatever.
My mother is an ESFP, and I actually default to an ESFP myself. But the biggest influences in my life (my father, best best and closest friends, both my current wife and my ex) were all N's. The strong influence over the course of my lifetime has totally changed the way I think. When I test, my results come out ENFP...but with about a 55/45 split on the N/S questions. And everyone that has interacted with me says that my outward personality leans toward ESFP. So I gave up and just adopted the EXFP tag.
-
INFJ-T
I knew I would be introverted. That's just a given.
-
ISFJ-T.
My results have changed quite a lot since the last time I took a test like this. It's actually amazing how much I've changed (or learned about myself) in the past eleven months.
-
INTJ-A
-
What a curious thing, I had several times thought of making this thread since I discovered the site. :P
My personality: INTJ - Turbulent. I'm still surprised at how precise the test results are - they have helped me learn a lot about myself.
-
INTP-T. I think I used to get INTJ on these long ago, I can't remember.
The description beneath is so close to spot on for me that it's scary.

Yeah, I feel the same way. I found this site like a week ago. Strange for me, since I usually over analyze everything and try to figure everything out and I would think I would have found that site by now but...I guess not.
Yes, it really was a bit scary to read that. I thought I was reading about my life, I mean INTP is EXACTLY how I think. It's amazing.

ENFP-A

ISTJ-T
I think I took a test like this about a year ago, got the same ISTJ.
-
I did the official Myers Briggs a couple of years ago and got ENTJ, but none of them were very strong.
E - I'm somewhat into the extrovert end of the spectrum, but not that far, and certainly exhibit a lot of introvert qualities as well.
N - This was the strongest I think - I definitely look at themes and patterns, but at the same time I'm also an empiricist who relies on factual evidence, so there's definitely some S in there as well.
T - Again not very strong, I prefer to act on logic and reason but often go with instinct and judgement as well.
J - Basically bang in the middle on this, but technically came down on the J side. If I took 20 different tests I'd probably get P half the time.

I think we've had this thread at least 3-4 times but it's always fun :lol
I pretty much always get the same, INFP-T, "the diplomat" and "turbulent" variant. Very accurate for me. I like how this one has those scales. I only got 6% toward introvert, which I think is pretty accurate. I easily go into hermit mode and get easily drained by people but I am still very social. The rest of them are less "on the fence."

Your personality type: “The Executive” (ESTJ-A)
Strength of individual traits: Extraverted: 1%, Observant: 39%, Thinking: 41%, Judging: 46%, Assertive: 31%.
Role: Sentinel
Strategy: People Mastery
Never done one of these before, the relationships was spot on, but I don't see myself as a presidential type of person lol

ARCHITECT (INTJ-T)
:hat
My Dad will be pleased - he is a Civil Engineer :coolio
-
INTJ- Mastermind
And so is my fiancee, which is probably why we get along so well.
-
ESFJ, I think but the test are a pain in the ass. Every single one i take calls me something different.
-
ENTJ-A "The Commander"
I've taken this sort of test a few times and always come up with one of ENTJ or INTJ. This test scored me unusually high in extroversion; most tests score me as 5-10% extroverted, whereas this one put me up at 50%.
The description nearly has me spot-on, although I do think of myself as more sympathetic and patient than what was described in my results. Efficiency has always played an important role in the amount of respect I have for a person because I strive for maximum efficiency myself. "The underlying thought running through the ENTJ mind might be something like 'I don't care if you call me an insensitive b*****d, as long as I remain an efficient b*****d.'" I'm pretty sure I've said those exact words before.

Just took a test again and it said I'm ENFJ with only a 1% preference to E over I. So who even knows?
-
Ahhh...Myers-Briggs. I love it. Spot on for me.
I've been an ENTP-A most of my life.
I think I first found that out in high school. I've probably taken the test 5 or 6 times since then. I haven't taken it in many years now; so I expected the results to change at least a little bit as we tend to grow softer with age. But nope. This time it was the same. ENTP-A. :metal
Another awesome test, and one that I believe would make the world a much better place if we focused on it is the "Strengthsfinder" test. Set up by Gallup, with over 60 years of research- it truly focuses in on an individuals strengths or as they call them "talents". I have used it in my personal life as first an employee and then as an author, husband, and father. I really believe it helped me be a better parent to my son. I had him take the test when he was 12, and again last year. It really helped him understand to work on focusing on and seeking out opportunities to utilize his strengths and not his weaknesses.
In the United States, we have this almost pathological need to point out faults in ourselves and each other. Corporations are built on focusing on and eliminating the weaknesses of their employees. In our culture we're practically taught this from birth. Dog eat Dog; only the strong survive; take no prisoners; eliminate the weak...Its really bad.
I'll give you an example of how it happens every day.
For all of you parents out there---if your son or daughter came home with a report card with the following grades, how would you honestly react:
MATHS: F
LANGUAGE ARTS: B
SCIENCE: A
HISTORY: C
READING: A
ART: C
What would you do? If you're honest, most of you would freak out on the F grade in Maths (I know it's MATH, I just wanted the Brits to feel good so I called it maths).
So you'd get little Johnny a tutor perhaps, or make him spend extra time at home on maths during homework, or you'd threaten him by taking away privileges, or maybe go to see his math teacher, or call a guidance counselor. If you're like some parents you'd even go to the family doctor to have Johnny tested for ADhD. So Johnny would REALLY then struggle mightily to get the F grade up to a passing grade. He'd work tirelessly on improving his grade. And while you as a parent shouldn't ignore the F; even with all that extra work, little Johnny pulls that grade up to a.....D, or maybe if he's lucky a C. Instead, what you should do is, of course get Johnny help with his Maths (you can't ignore it..it's important); but more importantly focus the bulk of the work and attention on his strengths. Help him develop that which he's already strongest in to help him further develop his talents and skills. Help Johnny really soar in what he's great at with his Science and Reading.
Strengthsfinders focuses on an individuals personality strengths and characteristics. Which is what more companies and society as a whole should really be focusing on instead of what it does today.
If you get the chance, buy the book and take the test. It could just change your life.
With Strengthsfinder it gives you your top five strengths or more appropriately Talents, out of 34 possibilities.
Mine are:
1. Ideation-- People strong in the Ideation theme are fascinated by ideas. They are able to find connections between seemingly disparate phenomena.
2. Individualization-- People strong in the Individualization theme are intrigued with the unique qualities of each person. They have a gift for figuring out how people who are different can work together productively.
3. Input-- People strong in the Input theme have a craving to know more. Often they like to collect and archive all kinds of information.
4. Strategic-- People strong in the Strategic theme create alternative ways to proceed. Faced with any given scenario, they can quickly spot the relevant patterns and issues.
5. Woo-- People strong in the Woo theme love the challenge of meeting new people and winning them over. They derive satisfaction from breaking the ice and making a connection with another person.

INTP here. Was INTJ and one point and ENTP at another. I really can't fault that because I've changed a lot over the years and INTP probably does suit me best.

I'm trying this free test (https://freestrengthstest.workuno.com/free-strengths-test.html), but it's damn too long :lol . I'm curious about its results though - will comment when I finish it.
EDIT: So these are my top strenghts:
1&2) Ideation & Intellection: 98 out of 100 points on both, sick. But they pretty much describe me. The tips for these are great, but I find them difficult to apply in my current situation - I guess that's where most of my frustrations in life come from.
3) Activator: I guess I'm pretty good at starting projects - I have lots going on all the time, but I'm not so sure about this one. It's realt tough for me to finish something I started.
4, 5, 6 & 7) Input, Learner, Restorative, & Significance: What a pleasant surprise to discover how well the first two describe me. And although the last two fit me, I found it a bit awkward that all these 4 had the same score, 87 :lol .

I just got around to reading the detailed results. I think they're fairly accurate for me. There were some parts that felt a little off base to me, but there were also parts that seemed to be written about me specifically.

I've taken loads of personality tests and, most of the time, I'm an ISTJ.
Strengths are Honest and Direct, Strong-willed and Dutiful, responsible, and Calm and Practical.
Weaknesses are Stubborn, insensitive, Judgmental, and Often Unreasonably Blame Themselves (I know I do that a lot of times in life).
This part under Romantic relationships also makes sense to me.
Blind dates and random hookups are not ISTJs' preferred methods for finding potential partners. The risk and unpredictability of these situations has ISTJs' alarm bells ringing, and being dragged out for a night of dancing at the club just isn't going to happen. ISTJ personalities much prefer more responsible, conservative methods of dating, such as dinner with an interested coworker or, in their more adventurous moods, a setup organized through a mutual friend.

INFP-A (The Mediator)
The description sounds (for the most part) pretty accurate to me.
-
INTP as always. Over the years, I think I've shifted from being very P with very little J to it maybe being more like 2:1. I think that was always there, it's just that circumstances/upbringing led to suppression of the J tendencies. The other three are not even close to the middle.
the T/A variants are interesting (I only know about these from Jackie posting/explaining on FB). My result was a preference for A (which is also true in the T&A sense!).
Assertive individuals are emotionally stable, calm, relaxed, refuse to worry too much.
Turbulent individuals are self-conscious, care about their image, success-driven, perfectionists.
I see a strong resonance with P/J on these, though it doesn't cover everything. I also see this as being a little more behavioral than inherent. By these definitions, I used to be very T, but now, I'm much more A, albeit with a strong drive for success (although, that could be that need to feel competent, which is one of the big drivers for INTP).
I've had some training in LIFO, which is a behavioral analogue of MBTI; it's used organizations sometimes. In this system, there are four categories, and 90 points split up between them. From taking the assessment, you wind up identifying your "most preferred", "backup" and "least preferred" styles. The categories are: Supporting/giving (keyword: Excellence), Controlling/taking (keyword: Action), Conserving/Holding (keyword: Reason), and Adapting/dealing (Keyword: Harmony). These can change over time (as they are behavioral), and excesses/extremes can be moderated. My scores typically come out something like 22/26/30/12. Anyone else here done this?

I guess we could also add they are attracted to Dream Theater!

Interesting, my daughter is an INTP and we have so much in common and are so close, but when we disagree it goes nuclear VERY quickly. She can't understand why I see "right and wrong" as a big part of the equation when decision making and she can't understand why I can't see past that to the underlying causes and motives.

By musical analogy, INTP and INTJ in a close relationship is like an F# being played against an F...so close, so much in common, but a couple of key differences get REALLY magnified and can create a lot of tension.
I'm lucky in that I'm married to my perfect match..an ENFP.

INTP
“THE LOGICIAN”
Growing up I've gone from E to I. Seems like it would usually be the other way around.
-
https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test
So its been a couple years since I first did the personality test, so I decided to do a retake since I was curious if it had changed at all. It still came back as INTJ, but honestly if anything has changed I feel like I've become way more extroverted, or at the very least I can warm up to people WAY faster then say 10 years ago. That's the only difference though.
Do you guys feel like you've grown in different directions from your original personality, or would you say its about the same?
-

I remember doing this on another forum a while back, I think I got ISTJ back then too. I haven't changed much anyway.

The Defender.
Well, makes sense to me after reading the summary.
Looks like I've lean more towards F than T since the last time I took the test. Lots of things has happened to me as well in the interim.
-
Many years ago when I took this test I was ISTJ “The Logistician." I was curious if the results were any different now. I know personality types aren't necessary dynamic but I feel I have changed in many ways over the past 10 years. Upon taking the test I see I am still ISTJ.

I took the test 4 years ago... but my results aren't showing in the thread :lol
