Myers-Briggs

Here's my new favourite personality test. I sat in a very long meeting today about research today and we talked about it a lot. It was probably the most exciting part of the day. Most alarmingly, our consultant was able to guess most people's sets accurately.



Anyway, I am ENTJ
  • Extraverted (by 1%), not Introverted
  • iNtuitive (38), not Sensing
  • Thinking (50), not Feeling
  • Judging (33), not Perception

The detail is here; I don't think there is any surprise. Apparently NTJ is the classic consultant profile, and the borderline exterversion is probably about right, given my slight schizoid tendency on that axis. In fact, none of the tendencies were particularly pronounced, which I think means either that I am mild in my opinions, or a little confused (probably the latter).

Anna, alarmingly, was ESFJ, which means we aren't compatable, or something. It's probably best for work, rather than relationships.

INTJ, along with Nils Bohr, Carl Jung, Newton and Nostradamus - apparently I am best suited to a career in Natural Science or Natural Science education rather fortunately.

There's nothing incompatible with your type and the person you mentioned. I don't know who told you that.

ENTP, but the P was by a whisker.

At least that's what I was about three years ago. As change is bad, I must still be that!
