Accuracy

Wow. So I heard about this personality quiz online. Now, I'm not usually one to do these things, but I thought, what the heck? Might as well.

Thus I tested.

...

The results were very interesting.

Here's what it said:

Sci's personality type:

Independent, original, analytical and determined. Have an exceptional ability to turn theories into solid plans of action. Highly value knowledge, competence and structure. Driven to derive meaning from their visions. Long-range thinkers. Have very high standards for their performance and the performance of others. Natural leaders, but will follow if they trust existing leaders.

Careers that could fit Sci includes:

Scientists, engineers, professors, teachers, medical doctors, dentists, corporate strategists, organization founders, business administrators, managers, military, lawyers, judges, computer programmers, system analysts, computer specialists, psychologists, photographers, research department managers, researchers, university instructors, chess players.

I felt this pretty much, in a very humble way, hit the nail on the head.

What might yours be?

Thanx, Sci, that was a good test...especially since I didn't have to pay for it. :D

I've always tested INFJ (yes, me, an introvert :P), and this case was no different. Sez I'm...
Quietly forceful, original and sensitive. Tend to stick to things until they are done. Extremely intuitive about people and concerned for their feelings. Well-developed value systems which they strictly adhere to. Well-respected for their perserverence in doing the right thing. Likely to be individualistic, rather than leading or following.

Careers that could fit moi include:
Counselors, clergy, missionaries, teachers, medical doctors, dentists, chiropractors, psychologists, psychiatrists, writers, musicians, artists, psychics, photographers, child care workers, education consultants, librarians, marketeers, scientists, social workers.


Yep...kinda freaky, isn't it?

Rufus,

Yeah. I've found that upon my second and third tries the personality traits got less and less accurate.

I have found however, that the career of choice of most people is almost always within the first three of their list.

but that is part of the test, I suppose - asks the right questions for some and the wrong for others.

Thanks for posting.
