You guys, have you ever taken a career placement test or personality test? I love this kinda stuff. I found a fun test that tries to describe people as being one of 16 personality types, with the following variables:

Extraverted (E) or Introverted (I)
Sensing (S) or iNtuitive (N)
Thinking (T) or Feeling (F)
Judging (J) or Perceiving (P)

Here's a description of those terms:
http://www.personalitytest.net/types/definitions.htm#sensing


And here's the actual test:
http://www.personalitytest.net/cgi-bin/q.pl

I scored:
94% Introverted
76% iNtuitive
53% Thinking
64% Perceiving

Which makes me an INTP:

INTP: "Architect". Greatest precision in thought and language. Can readily discern contradictions and inconsistencies. They are good at logic and math and make good philosophers and theoretical scientists, but not writers or salespeople. 1% of the total population.

Here's the list of all the types:
http://www.personalitytest.net/types/descriptions/index.htm

It's really fun. It describes the weaknesses of the specific personality type and also possible careers that would be appropriate.

I don't really think the test is too accurate though, cause most of my answers are close to 50%... just a few different answers and my type would have been ISTJ.

You guys, I found another site that describes these 16 categories in even greater detail. To me, it's kinda disturbing. I feel like it describes my "type" pretty well in many ways (for better or worse). I think it's all based on Jungian psychology.

INTP
Logical, original, creative thinkers. Can become very excited about theories and ideas. Exceptionally capable and driven to turn theories into clear understandings. Highly value knowledge, competence and logic. Quiet and reserved, hard to get to know well. Individualistic, having no interest in leading or following others.
