oh ye of little faith

in

I was skeptical about this test(see post below) ( because i felt i could've answered some the questions differently(at different times) or both ways. So i took it again and yup it came out the same. Tho evidently this is just a maybe since you would have to take the Real Test to know for sure - for a small fee of course.
Actually I'm good with this assessment - if only i'd taken it years ago.
I've highlighted what i definitely agreed with. Interesting stuff, now go take yours and report back.

this was very interesting for us when we did it. hubby and i just did this testing last year when he was tested prior to a week long workshop sponsored by his employer. i was so interested in it that i took the test, too. i agree about the different ways qts. could be answered. but, it all worked out, and the results described us each very accurately.

I've been tested a few times, and had always come out an INTP: Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, Perceiving. Most recently, I seem to have come out of my shell and become an ENTP. When I read the characteristics and relationships attributed to INTP, though, I feel most comfortable. Maybe I was lying the lasttime.
