The Myers & Briggs Personality Test Results

First off I have never taken this test before nor heard of it, so when I heard about it today I suddenly found it very interesting. I’d just like to say that this test is not easy. It may look simple, but there is a lot to it; you have to think a lot and look back at yourself. I did this test like three times and practically got the same results, but the second time I did it my percentages changed, and afterwards everything stayed the same!  I am an ESFJ which is told to be ‘The Supporter,” and 12% of people are ESFJ, with 17% female.

                          

         According to this test I am more extroverted than introverted, which I think is somewhat true. I am quite extroverted, I mean I talk to people a lot, I’m always interacting and hanging out with friends, but I keep a lot to myself. I’m the kind of person who just doesn’t tell anyone anything, unless they are super close with me. You would have to be a like a sibling to me, if I told you something. I literally don’t tell my sister that much either, there is one person I tell everything too, but I can trust her more than myself so that’s a different story. People think that I talk a lot and interact so much, that I would have an easy time telling people things but I really don’t. I usually keep everything to myself, and don’t like telling others. Its not that I don’t want to tell them, I just don’t feel comfortable telling anyone because the factor of trust is there.

            Second I got senses over intuition but it was almost evened out. I personally use both. I usually think things through before I say or do something; learning from past experiences, or even things that could happen. When I finally do make a decision I do what my heart says. I do think about it, but always follow my heart. Most of the times my intuition is correct, but of course I have also used my senses to reach that decision. I usually think a lot more emotionally, through my heart because I’m more of an emotional person. Of course I don’t always take decisions emotionally, but a lot of times I take others in consideration and make sure no one gets hurt. A lot of people tell me I am way to selfless, but I personally find it important not to hurt others while trying to benefit yourself or even in general hurt others.

            Feeling over thinking is absolutely correct. I am the kind of person who thinks emotionally then thinking logically. I also don’t like when people are insensitive. In a lot of decisions I think of others and myself because I find that very important. People do tell me I am someone who is selfless and doesn’t think about herself. I personally know when to put myself before others, its not that I don’t think about myself. There are many times where I do think about myself, but there are many situations where thinking about others is more important. I am considerate towards myself and know what is important for myself; I just know what is better for me and what is better for someone else. Having more feeling than thinking can be good and bad. I do think, but because I am more emotional I feel more. I am the kind of person who does think, but is more about emotions and others.

           

I think the judging over perceiving is slightly in correct, but still right. I am the kind of person who plans things and tries to make a schedule but not always. In academics I’m the kind of person who plans things, and makes sure I get everything done on time, but other than that I’m not super planner type. If I plan something with my friends, I’m not making sure of everything. I will definitely know the details, but if someone cancels a plan, or isn’t able to come I’m not panicking. I am definitely not someone who judges anyone. I personally despise people who judge others because I just find it so insensitive and rude. I personally think that you shouldn’t judge anyone until you do not know him or her fully. You have no idea what that person is going through, or what they have gone through, so you really have no right to judge them. I personally hate when people judge me because they know nothing about me; I find it so inconsiderate. I definitely am not someone who judges someone, so I think the test was slightly incorrect with that.

I did agree with this test about myself, and agreed with the paragraph too. Some things weren’t correct, like I don’t shy away from social events because I don’t really go to too many! I am sort of afraid of speaking in front of people but once I start I am completely fine. It is correct that I value relationships, along with supporting and nurturing others. I do not like seeing people upset and I think the word supporter really does describe me. I usually do like to follow the rules because I feel that is correct, but sometimes it’s okay to enjoy yourself!

     

It was really cool to be placed in the same category as athletes, figure skaters, comedians, and actors. I couldn’t stop laughing when I got Donald Duck in my category because at the starting Mr.Neufeld mentioned Donald Duck, and he ended up being in my category! It’s funny because I have thought of becoming a family doctor and counselor, in fact lots of people have told me to become a counselor! I really enjoyed this test, and I think I’ve learned a lot about myself thorough this! (:
