I have finished a free typing site

Vernm · 06-09-2009, 08:50 AM

Hey all,

Ok, my site is done. It will type you completely free, after you get your results, if you feel nice click on a google ad, i make about 10 cents

There are 40 multiple choice questions, doesn't take too long.

You not only get your type, but also a % breakdown of strengths in each category. (ie. 90% thinking, 10% feeling).

For those who already know your type, would very much like your feedback on the accuracy. I have had about 20 pre-typed people test it, and so far everyone has been typed as they knew they were.

the site is:

INTJ – Scientists and Strategists

Which is what I most often get in MBTI-like tests.

This bit is accurate:

Quote:

More than the other personality types, you are brilliant at grasping complex concepts and applying them to problems to create with long-term strategies. Since this type of "strategizing" is your central focus and drive, there is a good match between desire and ability. Being an INTJ you will be happy and most effective in careers which allow this type of processing, and which promote an environment in which you are given a lot of autonomy over your work and life.

As for your list of careers, I am or have been a scientist, engineer, and business manager.

As for this:

Quote:

You dislike messiness and inefficiency, and anything that is muddled or unclear.

It depends on what you're talking about, as there are some kinds of "messiness" I couldn't care less about.

I thought the question were generally far better than those in most MBTI tests. I liked it.

But, FYI, this is a socionics site, not a MBTI site. So I will move your thread to another subforum.

Thanks for trying the test. It is great to get feedback.

Allie, Why do you say the careers are wrong?

Actually, this is not a definative list, but more a suggestive list based on strengths in your personality and also any correlations with those types in that profession.

This is also why I made the voting section in the forum, so I can get some feedback about each type's ideal profession.

ENTJ – Executives and Chiefs

Career relevant traits:
• Natural leaders
• Driven to turn ideas into plans
• No patience with incompetence and inefficiency
• Want order and structure
• Highly developed verbal communication skills
• Do not like routine, detailed jobs
• Decisive and self-confident

You love to interact with people and to be part of an intellectual lively conversation. You respect others who can stand up to you and who can persuasively argue your point of view, and because of your self-confidence and excellent verbal skills, others may loose confidence when debating with you.
You don’t live in the world of feelings, but can be quite sentimental, even if it is not shown to others. There exists the risk that you could make a judgement based on ill-founded emotions and sentiments which could lead to problems.
If your thinking and intuitive nature is less developed you can be prone to making hasty decisions which may not always be the best, and another risk is that you can be giving orders and directions without sound reasoning, or consideration for the people involved.
Having said that, you likely have many gifts which give you a great deal of personal power, as long as you remain balanced in your life. Your ability to be assertive with long range thinking, combined with organisational skills allows you to create plans from theories, and have the personal tools to accomplish whatever goals you strive to attain.
You are especially well-suited to be a leader or organization builder. You contain the ability to clearly identify problems and find innovative solutions for short and long-term goals. Having a strong desire to lead, you are usually not happy just to follow. Being an ENTJ means you like to be in control, and need to take charge to use the advantage of your special capabilities.
You focus strongly on your career and naturally fit into the corporate environment. You are constantly scanning your world for potential problems which you can turn into solutions. You generally see things from a long-range perspective, and are very good at identifying plans to turn problems around, particularly problems of a corporate nature. As an ENTJ you are usually successful in the business world, because you are so driven to leadership. You are a hard and dedicated worker, and driven to recognize where an organization is headed. For these reasons, you are a natural corporate leader.

Possible Career Paths for the ENTJ:
• Corporate Executive Officer or Organization Builder
• Entrepreneur
• Mortgage Banker or Broker
• Scientists
• Marketing manager
• Politician
• Computer Consultant
• Lawyer
• Judge
• Business Administrators and Managers
• University Professors and Administrators

I think the percentages are right, and in line with my Big-5 scores (which are, in my opinion, the most accurate psychometric tool). I don't love the MBTI ENTJ descripion because it sounds too hardass and too organizationally-minded than I am, but I can recognize myself in some parts of it. 80 percent of the careers listed look good to me.

Expat · 06-09-2009, 11:26 AM

I will comment in more detail:

Quote:

Career relevant traits:
• Can absorb highly complex theories and material
• Strive to create structure from theoretical abstractions
• Brilliant strategists
• Strong insights and intuitions, which are trusted implicitly
• Enjoy difficult theoretical challenges
• Bored with mundane routine tasks
• Calm, collected and analytical
• Very logical and rational
• Original, creative, independent, ingenious and resourceful
• Natural leader, but will follow if you can fully support the person and plans
• Prefer to work alone and better at doing so.

The bolded are traits that I, personally, do not really identify with, although they make sense, I would think, for INTJ as a type.

Quote:

Possible Career Paths for the INTJ:
• Scientists
• Research department managers
• University instructors
• Engineers
• Professors and Teachers
• Medical Doctors or Dentists
• Psychologists
• Corporate Strategists and Organization Builders
• Business Administrators and Managers
• Military Leaders
• Lawyers
• Judges
• Computer programmers/specialists, or Systems Analysts

The bolded above are not only careers I can't see for myself, but also I don't think they make particular sense for INTJ as a type.

ISTJ – Duty Fulfillers and Examiners

Career relevant traits:
• Will work long and hard to complete tasks to completion.
• Faithful and loyal.
• Stable, practical and down-to-earth
• Do not like abstract theory, unless you see the practical application
• Natural leaders
• Prefer to work alone, but work well in teams when necessary
• Extremely observant, you take in facts via your senses and store them internally
• Vast inner store of facts which are used to understand problems which are encountered in your lifetime
• Deep respect for facts and concrete information
• Make decisions objectively, applying rational and logical thinking
• Dislike change, unless you are shown it´s benefit in a concrete way
• Have strong opinions about the way things should be done
• Appreciate structured, orderly environments
• Have very high standards for your own and other’s behaviour.
• Not naturally able to pick up on other’s feelings
• Can accomplish almost anything if you put your mind to it.

You are a quiet and reserved person who seeks security and peace. Your sense of duty can create an air of serious around you, and this duty, combined with your honesty and integrity means you can be relied upon to complete tasks independently.
You have great respect for facts, which you acquire through your sensing thinking mind. Although at times theories and ideas which are different to your own perspective you may have difficulty in understanding, once you have been shown the importance of the concept, you will go to all lengths to support and work to complete your duty.
As an ISTJ, your strength which translates into your career, professional and personal life is your perseverance. As an ISTJ you can accomplish almost anything you put your mind to with dedication. Your career path may be most successful when you have the ability to use to your excellent skills of organisation and concentration. ISTJs fit very well into executive and management roles within the corporate/business world.

Possible Career Paths for the ISTJ:
• Business Executives, Administrators and Managers
• Accountanting and financial work.
• Auditors
• Maths Teachers
• Mechanical engineers
• Technicians / Dentists
• Police and Detectives
• Judges
• Lawyers
• Medical Doctors and Dentists
• Computer Programmers/specialists and System analysts
• Military Leaders

Vernm · 06-09-2009, 12:01 PM

Hi Allie,

To answer the question, why an ISTJ is suggested teaching maths over teaching another subject:

Keeping in mind that everyone is different, and certainly there are many exceptions of course. The test doesn't measure education, intelligence and environment, which play crutial roles in who we are, and what we want. However, to explain in terms of type:

I in the INTJ. Introverted teachers better in sciences as they need less expressive explanations than say humanities, arts, drama.

T in INTJ. Thinking, rather than working with feeling (which often translates as strength in jobs and tasks involving human relationships). You are more likely to be better at teaching things which don't require more of the human touch, (like Physical eduction, music), but better again in things like maths, chemistry, physics.

Sensing. Sensing people like concrete ideas and facts, over hunches or feelings. So, again, maths. It is as concrete as you can get.

Finally, J. You are organised and structured. Hence would be better at teaching things that fall into this category.

If you were higher in P, then you could be better at teaching say marketing or business, which are subjects which have maths elements, but you need to have strengths in being reactive and at times creative. Things which are inline with the Perceiver rather than the Judger.

So, generally, ISTJ is more suited to teaching maths, but doesn't mean necessarily that you are, or that you want to me.

Hope this explanation is satisfactory.

Vern

ENTP – Visionaries and Inventors

Career relevant traits:
• Project and future oriented
• Excellent communication skills
• Natural leaders
• Able to grasp difficult concepts and theories
• Do not like confined schedules, routines or detailed tasks
• Creative, ingenious, bright and capable

I don't see anything wrong with this, however you should consider either expanding on types like this or perhaps trimming down the number of traits you have for other types. For instance, you have only 6 traits for ENTp and 7 for ENTj, while you have 16 for ISTj and 14 for INTp.

Quote:

As an ENTP you are less interested in developing plans of [action] than you are in generating ideas. You are an ideas person, and see opportunities and possibilities everywhere, making you resourceful in problem solving. However, following through on the implementation of an idea is usually a chore to any ENTP, this is because of the dislike of the tedious details required. For some ENTPs, this results in the habit of never finishing what they start.

I've fixed typos in bracketed words.

Others may disagree, but it's not the tedious details that prevents me from finishing what I start. It's the fact that I've already solved the initial problem and therefore my skills are no longer particularly useful. Tedious details are part of the problem solving process, and part of the challenge, which makes them fun (if sometimes aggravating). There's no challenge in completing something for which the course is already plotted, which is why I rather that someone finishes for me.

Quote:

The ability to intuitively understand people and situations gives you a definite advantage as you quickly grasp concepts and situations with great depth. This flexibility means you can adapt to a variety of different skills and tasks, and will inevitability be quite [adept] at almost anything that is of interest to you.

This is generally true of me.

Quote:

Being an ENTP means you are a fluent [conversationalist], mentally quick, and enjoy verbal sparring with others. The ENTP personality type is also sometimes referred to [as] the "Lawyer" type. The ENTP "lawyer" quickly and accurately understands a situation, and objectively and logically acts upon the situation.

Also generally true.

Quote:

Possible Career Paths for the ENTP:
• Lawyers
• Inventors
• Entrepreneurs
• Investigators
• Technical writing
• Psychologists
• Photographers
• Journalists
• Designers
• Consultants
• Engineers
• Scientists
• Actors
• Sales Representatives
• Marketing
• Public relations
• Computer [specialists]/[programmers] or systems [analysts]
• Musicians
• [Politicians]

I'm almost positive that Technical Writing would be extremely tedious for an ENTP. I have no idea why you would suggest an ENTP pursue a career as a Technical Writer. I also don't understand the rational for Photographer.

ISTP – Mechanics and Craftspeople

Career relevant traits:
• Have an excellent ability to apply logic and reason to their immense store of facts to solve problems or discover how things work
• Usually able to master theory and abstract thinking, but don´t particularly like dealing with it unless they see a practical application
• Thrive on new experiences and variety
• Excellent "trouble-shooters", able to quickly find solutions to a wide variety of practical problems
• Risk-takers who love action
• Continuously storing facts about their environment and storing them.

I agree with this pretty much, except for perhaps the risk-taking, i'm not so sure I enjoy the action, and i've known myself to play it safe. For hobbies though, in sports related things, i've taken risks, and suffered some injuries in the process (all healed though)!

Quote:

You are lucky because you have the ability to be good at many different things.
Your introverted and thinking strengths give you the ability to concentrate and work through problems which leaves you many open doors. To be happiest an ISTP needs to lead a lifestyle which has much autonomy and which doesn’t include very much external enforcement of structure. An ISTP will do best working in highly flexible environments or being their own boss. Your natural interests are in applying your very good reasoning skills against known data and facts to discover underlying structure, or solutions to practical questions.

Pretty much.

Quote:

ISTPs are compelled to understand how things work. Being good at logical analysis, and enjoy using it on practical issues. Typically you will have strong powers of reasoning, although you are not interested in concepts or theories except when you can see a practical application. You enjoy taking things apart to see how they work.

Pretty much applies to me too, although I don't take things apart unless I *think* I know what i'm doing, depending on how important the thing is i'm taking apart.

I can take apart actual objects to see how they work, or other things related to business work.

Quote:

ISTPs are excellent in a crisis.

Yeah, i've noticed this. I've sometimes wondered what it would be like if I could apply this ability consistently, but it seems that not doing so probably goes hand in hand with being a P type.

Quote:

You are likely to be a good athlete, having very good hand-eye co-ordination. You are good at following through with a project, and tying up loose ends.

Well, depends what you mean by being a good athlete! I'm OK, have competed a bit and done OK, i'm not so sure about my hand-eye co-ordination, maybe resulting from a slight inner ear inbalance.

Quote:

You usually don´t or didn’t have much trouble in school, because you are an introvert who can think logically. You are usually a patient person, although you are susceptible to the occasional emotional outburst, due to the inattention of your own feelings.

Depends on the method of schooling, i'm usually OK at learning things but I don't particularly like on going assessments, as I typically have found myself leaving things at school to the last minute and "cramming" for the exam. As a side note, I remember at school I used to sort of challenge myself to see how much, or rather, how little work I could do and still get a decent grade, which is really pretty reckless now that I think about it.

I'm usually patient but I can flare up with not paying attention to my feelings, also I can flare up if i'm in an environment where I perceive people being excessively rude to each other.

Quote:

As an ISTP, you thrive on action, and are quite possibly fearless. Your adventurous nature finds them attracted to motorbikes, sky-diving, flying, etc.

I'm not so keen on motorbikes, but I think that's just me personally, but I like the other stuff. I'm typically a fearless person.

Quote:

ISTPs are fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make your own decisions about your next step. You do not believe in or follow regulations and rules, as this would prohibit your ability to "do your own thing". Your sense of adventure and desire for constant action makes ISTPs liable to quickly becoming quite bored.

I like some element of rules because if it involves a group structure, because I can get a bit lost if everyone is doing whatever and the idea of the group is to achieve something. I do get bored pretty easily. I'm also extremely independent, which at times I think can work against me.

Quote:

Possible Career Paths for the ISTP:
• Pilots, Drivers, Motorcyclists
• Police and Detective Work
• Fire-fighters
• Paramedics
• Probation officers
• Forensic Pathologists
• Computer Programmers/Specialists, System Analysts
• Engineers
• Carpenters
• Construction workers
• Mechanics
• Farmers
• Transportation workers
• Athletes
• Entrepreneurs

Personally, most of those careers are something that would suit me. I've bolded ones i'm not sure about:

Entrepreneurs, I think i'd like to be an entrepreneur, but I struggle to come up with the idea to persue to be one.

Probation officer, i'm not sure if i'd be good at that. Typically, at least here, probation officers are expected to be understanding of peoples situations and what have you, which i'm maybe not that suited to on a wide scale with people, but as I understand that sort of job, it's maybe a reflection on current society values where I am.
Also, the police, i'm not too fond of them, but paradoxically perhaps, detective work wouldn't bother me, as I think i'd enjoy solving things.

Working in the medical profession or forensic pathologist appeals to me. They give a certain amount of freedom and at the same time require skills to be learned, perfected, along with using these skills for problem solving, which suits me pretty well.

This seems to be MBTI focused, but to be honest it's a pretty good description, and going by it, i'm quite happy to call myself an ISTP.

If you were higher in P, then you could be better at teaching say marketing or business, which are subjects which have maths elements, but you need to have strengths in being reactive and at times creative. Things which are inline with the Perceiver rather than the Judger. So, generally, ISTJ is more suited to teaching maths, but doesn't mean necessarily that you are, or that you want to me. Hope this explanation is satisfactory. Regards, Vern www.career-test.co.uk
